How did you learn of Teddy Riner's candidacy for the next presidential election?

Stéphane Nomis: I was not aware of the timing of this announcement. However, I was not surprised because I had learned of his intention a few months ago in the world of judo. Behind, we talked about it a lot internally until I noticed that his behavior had changed. And from that moment, I understood that he was going to go there.

How do you judge his choice?

He has the courage to do this. Everyone knows that politics is a complicated environment, which shoots at sight. These are not the same fights. When you do judo, you have a guy in front of you who respects specific rules. In politics, it’s not quite that. I think it’s courageous of him to want to be president of France.
