Bally Bagayoko expressed the solidarity of the City of Saint-Denis – Pierrefitte-sur-Seine with the municipalities affected by violence and damage, notably Limoges, Marseille, Lille, Bordeaux, Calais, and Grenoble. He extended his support to the victims, the injured, their families, as well as to the residents, elected officials, agents, and traders. He condemned the violence and damage and reaffirmed his commitment to republican values, respect for people and property, and the freedom to protest peacefully. He specified that the city would not organize a gathering as part of the AMF call but would prioritize local actions with traders and youth, while the municipal police would be mobilized for public tranquility. Bagayoko called for de-escalation and stated that the situation required concrete political and social responses from the President of the Republic and the government. According to him, the response could not be solely security-oriented but must address inequalities and precariousness. He also warned that gatherings should not justify a disengagement of the State nor the transfer of its responsibilities to municipalities. Finally, he supported the demands of high school students, university students, and others calling for measures against the cost of living. #Solidarité #JusticeSociale #Désescalade (translated)
