The government of French President Emmanuel Macron has reacted angrily to a group serving French soldiers after publishing an open letter warning that a “civil war” was erupting over the “concessions” it had given to “Islamism” shortly after passing a message similar to military elements. he rocked the elite.
The letter, published on the website of the right-wing magazine Valeurs Actuelles at the end of Sunday, echoes that of the same publication last month, but appears to have been written by an unknown number of younger troops still in active service.
Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin, Macron’s close ally, accused the anonymous signatories of the second letter of lacking “courage” on Monday, while defense minister Florence Parly dismissed it as part of a “crude political scheme”.
