🇫🇷⚔️🇫🇷 Macron finally breaks his silence, with a tweet
After saying nothing all day while riots spread across France, Macron posted this in the evening. He promises to punish those who attacked prefectures, shops and town halls, and offers support to the police.
He hasn't addressed the nation or appeared in public. On Friday evening, the night before the protests, he and Brigitte were at a Céline Dion concert in Nanterre.
Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez says a state of emergency will not be declared. Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu says the government won't be intimidated.
Jean-Luc Mélenchon, leader of La France Insoumise, accuses Lecornu of provoking a regime crisis with his "savage repression orders" and says he is "not a statesman." He also warned police officers that those in power will abandon them at the first opportunity.
