Immigration. Gerald Darmanin would like to expel any foreigner who has "committed grave acts".

Le Monde's Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin stated that he wants to allow the expulsion of any foreigner who has "committed serious acts" in an interview. This will be accomplished by lifting certain conditions, including the age at which you arrived in France.

The minister explained that a foreigner who has been convicted of serious crimes is not eligible for deportation as long as certain conditions are met, such as having arrived on national territory prior to the age 13." . "We want to permit the expulsion of any foreigner who is found guilty of a grave act by the courts, regardless their condition on the national territory," he said, adding that it was something that "concords with the sovereign program that President Macron presented to the French".

This provision will be integrated in the future orientation-and-programming law of the Ministry of the Interior, Lopmi (presented at the beginning of the school year). Gerald Darmanin demanded that the government extend its hand to the opposition in order to get it adopted. Minister to Le Monde assured that "we are willing to discuss, amend, and find compromises avec the LRs. The centrists and even some of the left".

The government is also willing to "take up” in the Lopmi "a number of proposals, such as Bruno Retailleau’s (LR) antibreakers law", declared Gerald Darmanin, and to "reflect on the conclusions of Francois-Noel Buffet's (LR), "in terms of migration."

French people are a great example of how to speak with their guts

Gerald Darmanin, in an interview with Le Monde, also spoke out about the electoral failure of the presidential majority, which deprived Emmanuel Macron a majority in his National Assembly. The Minister of Interior was confronted with the "sign" from voters and asked his camp to "speak directly to the French", such as Marine Le Pen or Jean-Luc Melenchon, but "differently". They exploit fear and divide. He insisted that we must have positive emotion, empathy, and listening ...",. "If the ruling parties don't do this, it will create a vast field for extremists and set the stage for a populist alternative in the country.

However, the occupier of Place Beauvau swept away any alliances with La France Insoumise or the National Rally. "We must find a compromise between the governing parties. There is right and there is left. Their voters may not have chosen the presidential majority in the legislative election, but they haven't made the decision to block either. They can discuss many subjects with them," stated Gerald Darmanin. He stressed that it was important for the "dike to be clear between parties that have a republican cultural and those that don't."
