French President Macron draws severe criticism in parliament and from election rivals by using a vulgarity to describe his strategy for pressuring vaccine refusers to get Covid-19 jabs as cases surge
Opponents including rivals in the 2022 presidential elections accused Macron of overstepping the line with the language of his comments.
Macron used the French word “emmerder,” rooted in the French word for “crap” and meaning to rile or to bug, in an interview published by Le Parisien on Tuesday night, as parliament debated new measures that will allow only the vaccinated to enjoy leisure activities such as eating out.That's the strategy," Le Parisien quoted the French leader as saying in a sit-down interview at the presidential Elysee Palace with a panel of its readers.
It will exclude the non-vaccinated from places such as restaurants, cinemas, theaters, museums and sports arenas. French officials vow to approve vaccine pass despite parliamentary glitchOpposition lawmakers protested audibly as Macron's health minister, Olivier Veran, sought to defend the president's choice of words.
