President Macron To Pressure Unvaccinated Citizens

Informações:

Synopsis

French President Emmanuel Macron has warned he intends to make life difficult for people in France who have not been vaccinated against Covid-19. Political opponents however said the strong language he used in the interview was not worthy of a president. His comments came as a bill on Covid passes was delayed by opposition MPs uniting against the government. A debate in parliament on the bill, which would bar the unvaccinated from much of public life, was prevented from continuing after midnight. The legislation was expected to be approved in a vote this week, but it has angered vaccine opponents and several French MPs have said they have received death threats over the issue.
