The president of DéFI is leaving with his partner and his 2 and a half year old little boy for La Rochelle. “We really like this region, on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. It mixes both history and incredible landscapes: enough to make beautiful family walks. The locals are also friendly. I’m taking Nicolas Mathieu’s book with me, “Their children after them”, on the recommendations of my partner. And if you have an “Agatha Christie” thriller to recommend to me, I’m a taker.”

The president of the MR has not yet decided at this stage, even if he praises the charms of Italy. “I don’t know if there’s a region where you don’t feel good in Italy,” he says, pointing more particularly to the Amalfi Coast, the beauty of Florence or even the welcome in Naples. As reading, it will be the biography of Napoleon Bonaparte, by Max Gallo. “A man who started out of nowhere, with a romantic career, elected by the people and whose trajectory has shaped Europe.”
