Grazia Cecere, professor at the Business School of the Parisian university Institut Mines Telecom: "The results were in the air anyway"

“Both political forces and citizens are faced with their responsibilities; now we have to understand what country we want“. Grazia Cecere, professor at the Business School of the Parisian university Institut Mines Telecom, speaks with the agency Dire Dopo the announcement of President Emmanuel Macron. Based on the first results of the vote of the European elections, with the affirmation of the right of the Rassemblement National (Rn) as the leading political force in France, the head of State decided to dissolve the National Assemblyand to call legislative elections for June 30.

“THE FROST FALLED IN PARIS”

Forty-four years old, born in Martina Franca, Puglia, then Naples and a life of study in Paris, the teacher describes the atmosphere in the capital. “There is silence on the street”he reports:“Many didn’t expect an announcement like this,broadcast by the main television stations on unified networks”. According to Cecere, “the president appeared sad and exhausted.” The mood of Jordan Bardella, a 28-year-old with Italian origins at the head of the Rassemblement National, was opposite. “The results were in the air anyway” underlines the teacher: “The presence on TV of the ‘tenors’ of the Macron’s party, starting with the Catholic Francois Bayrou, his first ally”.
