Three days after the bombing in Nice, committed July 14, day of the national day and the country’s unity, discord policy is growing. “Everything had to be done for eighteen months has not been done,” hammered Nicolas Sarkozy on TF1 television news Sunday night from the board.
On a martial tone – he mentioned a “total war” – , President of Republicans lashed speeches that evoke the mental fragility of the bomber Nice. “You have to stop saying that it is unbalanced, you must name the enemy and fight,” has he annoyed. Former President of the Republic outlined the measures that it seemed necessary to: open-radicalization centers, “sack” the data subjects ‘S’ of foreign origin, equip stuck “S” “who are at risk of radicalization” with an electronic bracelet or place them in a detention center.
He also felt that the prefects were able take the decision to close places of Muslim worship with ties to the Salafist ideology and to expel imams. Finally, he called for ground intervention in neighboring Iraq and Syria “allies” of France, while calling for the alliance with Russia.
“No government has done more”
Faced with criticism, the government front. Manuel Valls and Bernard Cazeneuve issued a joint statement Sunday long. “No government has done so far in the fight against terrorism,” the text says, recalling “the need for national unity” .
the statement also returns in detail on the measures taken since the arrival of the left in power, citing among other things an increase in police force, “a new national plan of action of forces on the entire territory “, the reform of the intelligence services or the three anti-terrorism laws ” adopted during the five-year “.
The Prime Minister had already stepped into the breach, Sunday, July 17, in an interview with Sunday newspaper . “Some irresponsible politicians say that this attack was preventable. But zero risk does not exist. To say otherwise is lying to the French, “ denounced the Prime Minister before estimating that ” the answer to the Islamic state can not be a “Trumpisation ” minds. “

In this interview, Mr. Valls criticized specifically “the attitude of Christian Estrosi,” former mayor (Republicans) Nice and current president of the regional council of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur – who had won Friday night against the lack of police deployed in Nice at the fireworks, and the recent statements of Alain Juppé, who on 15 July had written that “no fatalism nor naivety can not be tolerated” . “If some in the opposition refuse to, so even those who were considered moderate part in this demagogic drift is very serious” , says the Prime Minister.
not sure yet that this reaction is enough to calm down critics from the right. “the people are not in national unity. The government can not get out for the third time with it having all the policies around it “, repeated Mr. Estrosi to Point on Sunday. The same day, the mayor of Bordeaux and candidate for the primary right of assumed his position in an interview with Paris “Fatalism is not a politic. “
Alain Juppe muscle attacks
” The French are well aware that national unity is essential if is effective , analysis Eric Ciotti, MP of the Maritime Alps and close to Nicolas Sarkozy. Now the French are angry. They do not see François Hollande a warlord. The triptych “emotion-communication-commoditization” lived and we need legal rearming, military and moral. “
The approach of the primary right to the end of November and the 2017 presidential results in an escalation between different voices on the right. Everyone wants to be the spokesman of the “anger” of the French and reassure citizens for the elections. Alain Juppe has not changed his ideas since the publication of his book For a strong state (ed. JC Lattes, 250 p.) In January, in which he is in favor of strengthening intelligence territorial and development of a penitentiary intelligence force. But the former prime minister was quick to react by issuing a statement attacking on Friday July 15th.
A change of habit for a candidate who does not like to react by being unwelcome news. In musclant and repeating his attacks against the government, the mayor of Bordeaux has placed himself at the center of the political storm. With the approach of the primary of November 20 and 27, the candidate does not want to be overwhelmed by his main rival, Nicolas Sarkozy, dating back in the polls. “We will never be in the bidding but there a form of fatalism that faces the French “ says Gilles Boyer, the campaign manager of Mr. Juppe.
Harden state of emergency
the former head of state should also be very active in the coming days by posing as the main opponent to the government. After his very harsh statements by Sunday evening, Sarkozy meet a political office of his party on Monday 18 July. On a visit to Berlin, Mr Juppé do not attend.
Then, he will receive the RS parliament at party headquarters on Tuesday morning. Several close members – Eric Ciotti, Guillaume Larrivé (Yonne) and Georges Fenech (Rhône) – should once again to table amendments during the debate on the extension of the state of emergency by reactivating ideas already brought into the debate after the attacks of November 2015 and the double murder of Magnanville (Yvelines) June 13: administrative detention of individuals who pose a threat to state security, closure of places of worship Salafists or the removal of any difficulty planning for persons convicted of terrorist offenses.
“the state of emergency must be virtual. The new division is between those who slumber and those who are aware that we are at war , Mr. Larrivé slice. And sometimes the government should listen. In times of war, we must reject the false unanimity because the democratic debate makes sense – in 14-18, Clemenceau debated in the House of Deputies – and reject improvisation and political polemics. We are a party of government that makes realistic proposals. “
Competition with the FN
One way to denounce the Marine positions Le Pen, who has once again revived his criticism of a so-called “system” “this crisis should lead us to say: Holland, Valls, Cazeneuve, Sarkozy and others, never again, never again them.” , said, Saturday, July 16 President the National Front.
in the midst of these tragic events, the two parties do not forget that they will compete in 2017. the rise of the FN in the Alpes-Maritimes, a bastion of the Republican right , worried for several months the staff party LR, which fears that the attack in Nice will further strengthen the FN push. This fact also explains the positions increasingly radical opposition, wedged between an executive to maneuver and an anti-FN system. “The next presidential election will be played on how to protect French and ‘the man best placed to be a warlord. This issue will be essential well before that of unemployment “ says Mr. Ciotti. Over the presidential election will be close, plus the right will strengthen this strategy, leaving no respite to the executive. Even trample national unity.
