“unbearable over-communication”, “political ownership”: opposition Thursday sharply criticized the executive communication regarding the foiled planned attack, the revelation Wednesday by François Hollande seemed to surprise even within the State apparatus.
CEO The Republicans party (RS, former UMP), Frédéric Péchenard did not mince his words on Thursday morning. “It is clear that national unity as advocated by the Socialist Party today flies in bursts since there was a political ownership will, probably to hide a number of government failures or difficulties in the fields unemployment or economic “, denounced this close to Nicolas Sarkozy and former director general of the national police.
In case, a chairman’s statement, which accompanied Wednesday in Marseille his Mexican counterpart as part of a state visit: “This week we have also warned of terrorist acts that could have been produced The Interior Minister will make a communication tomorrow (Thursday) to this effect.”.
Meanwhile, the minister in question, Bernard Cazeneuve, Prime Minister Manuel Valls and most senior officials of the hexagonal safety attended the farewell of the police prefect of Paris, Bernard Boucault and some surprise seemed to accompany the announcement of the head of state on the island of the City.
Mr. Cazeneuve was suddenly not wait the next day for the final delivery details: four people aged 16 to 23 years, who were planning to film the beheading of a military leader, were arrested and placed in custody. According to a source close to the case, suspects were planning to attack a soldier at Fort Béar (Pyrénées-Orientales).
Like Mr. Péchenard, much of the opposition has judged very harshly that sequence. “The over-communication of the President of the Republic and the Government on terrorism is intolerable”, was indignant and the former Defence Minister Mr Sarkozy Hervé Morin (UDI).
” It is irrelevant to communicate hot on terrorist acts allegedly foiled (…) Policies would be well advised to leave work specialized services, “added the MEP (LR) Arnaud Danjean.
– sterile polemics Basses’ –
For the National Front, Wallerand de Saint-Just preferred ironic about a Francois Hollande who has “done very well” since the attacks of January, “to use the elements to his advantage. “
More measured, the MP (LR) Eric Ciotti denounced a” communication a bit hasty, “but, he added,” there is not the merits of the case, the point is that, if there was a foiled attack, I rejoice. “
On the same tone, the former Prime Minister, Jean-Pierre Raffarin, preferred to retain “our device works and (that) from this point of view, it is reassuring to thwart attacks.”
“Mr. Péchenard would he memory fails or wants -it fool the French? ” was indignant for its part the PS in a statement. “It is the right (…) who performed draconian cuts in workforce, eliminating 13,700 positions of police and gendarmes, who favored figure of the policy to the detriment of the action. But Mr Péchenard remained silent at this time, “the particular text signed by Marie-Pierre of Gontrie.
” Mr. Péchenard should welcome the action of the security forces that he led and that he knows perfectly, than to stoop to low sterile polemics and unfounded, “the PS.
Mr. Valls has sought to frame this communication. “The president, myself, the Minister of Interior for months, remember the power of the threat (…) We regularly déjouons attacks. It is undoubtedly the case with the arrest of these four individuals, “said the prime minister.
Mr. Hollande “found that at one time, it was important to show the French that they were protected,” for his part pleaded Ségolène Royal. “We can not hide the truth from French,” explained Mr. Cazeneuve.
This communication was also probably intended to promote the merits of the highly criticized intelligence law, which has yet to pass the exam the Constitutional Council. But in view of the reactions, the executive knows that he can count on any political truce
