François Bayrou Faces Criticism for Attending Municipal Meeting Amid Mayotte Crisis
French Prime Minister François Bayrou is under fire for attending a municipal council meeting in Pau while a crisis unfolds in Mayotte. Yaël Braun-Pivet, President of the National Assembly, emphasized the need for full attention to the crisis instead of discussing the dual mandate issue, which she deems inappropriate at this time. Both Braun-Pivet and Olivier Faure from the Socialist Party criticized Bayrou’s priorities, insisting that the focus should be on urgent issues affecting the French population.
