Indeed, Bernard Campan revealed that the group had gone through areas of turbulence in recent years. “We argued, yes. There were fights, it’s part of life. Often, we made a curtain. We don’t speak again for a while. Then we talk again, we say we don’t understand each other… It’s complicated, the groups are very complicated”, he confided, visibly ready to bury the hatchet.
