“Brutal and violent”: Raphaël Glucksmann castigates LFI after throwing flour

For Raphaël Glucksmann, it was a fun evening. Sunday evening, the social democrat won the left-wing primary with 66% of the vote. While he gathered his support in Belleville, in the 20th arrondissement of Paris, to celebrate this first round victory, the political leader was floured. On France Inter, this Monday, he accuses La France Insoumise (LFI) of being involved in the maneuver: “Every event we organize, every demonstration we go to, there are Insoumis activists who harass, insult, insult, or threaten.”

On the videos, we see the MEP answering the microphones, then being sprinkled with flour, before he rushes into his vehicle to leave. “This is not the first time, I am ready to face the violence of this campaign,” retorted the forty-year-old. If the involvement of the Insoumis has not been proven, he calls for the responsibility of their four-time presidential candidate. “Jean-Luc Mélenchon must decide if the next seven months will be this type of event all the time. If he decides that it is not that, he must formally disavow that his supporters are attacking,” he warned. In the evening, the president of the National Rally (RN), Jordan Bardella, castigated “unacceptable violence”.
