David Lisnard defended an open primary for the right and the center, which he had been proposing for nearly two years. According to him, this competition would help avoid divisions that could cause a loss in the presidential election and the compromises among elected officials that he deems harmful to the country. He specified that defeated candidates would not be obliged to support the winner, but they should not harm his campaign, and he said he would do the same if another candidate won. He reproached some officials for wanting to include the left in the primary while excluding the right that had not governed with Emmanuel Macron. He also accused other opponents of the primary of invoking candidates who were not running to avoid the election. Lisnard invited Édouard Philippe, whom he described as the last to refuse the primary, to clarify its scope, adding that he was ready to confront him. A candidate for the presidential election, Lisnard presented his movement as independent and his project as grounded in reality. He stated that he would not govern with either the macronists or the RN, and called on his supporters to join him. He also criticized the "small phrases" that he considered misleading and malicious in the political debate, believing that media agitation distracted attention from the country's concerns. #CestLeMoment #Politique #France #Élections (translated)
