Robert Badinter: Emmanuel Macron pays tribute to the “Republic created by man”

He has a blue scarf tied around his neck, and his gaze is always extremely serene. Nothing affects her weight at 95 years old. This is a large portrait of Robert Badinter, installed under the windows of the Ministry of Justice on Place Vendôme, where he served from 1981 to 1986. And where Emmanuel Macron wanted to pay solemn tribute to this “giant” this Wednesday, February 14th. century.

Two stands face each other, soon ready to receive his coffin between them, covered with a tricolor flag. Numerous luxury boutiques surrounding the square silently watch the parade of the political elite. Everyone came to bow. A ballet of elected officials, deputies and senators, socialists who came to greet the “comrade”, current or former ministers. “He was a very great justice minister, a very great lawyer and a very great humanist,” praises François Bayrou, the short-lived justice minister, speaking to the media.
