Euskaraz irakurri: Bornek gauzak “ez behartzearen” alde egin du, eta beharrezkotzat jo du “sendatze epe bat errespetatzea”

French Prime Minister, Elizabeth Borne He is in favor of tackling the pension reform in a conciliatory way, respecting times and “without forcing” things. This was stated in an interview published this Friday by the French newspaper the worldfrom whose lines emerges a stand out, at least in tone, from the message of President Emmanuel Macronmuch more forceful on the issue of pension reform.

Borne drops a few sentences about his intention to reach out to the unions and more generally to try to calm the situation, but without conceding to the unions what has been their demand since the protests began in January: the withdrawal of the reform of pensions.

The prime minister insisted in the interview that if the reform goes ahead, the right moment must be found to re-establish dialogue, that “unions do not have to leave this sequence humiliated”, that “a period of convalescence must be respected ” and in what “we have to be extremely careful not to force things” because “the country needs calm”.

For Borne, the priority it would have to be to point the government in a direction before looking for political allies to support them to vote on laws in Parliament (Macron has asked it to broaden its parliamentary base) and avoid issues that can generate conflict. His idea is to address issues such as employment, working conditions, education and health to address problems such as the impoverishment of the middle classes.

According to Le Monde, Prime Minister awaits Macron’s return from China to see what you think of all this, and at the same time specify that the elysium shuffles different scenarios, including change their prime minister. An option that Borne believes is not appropriate now with the climate of social tension that exists on the street: “this is not the time to swerve.”

Precisely during his trip to China, Macron, who considers himself fully legitimized to address the reform, and defends that the electoral program with which he was elected already included the pension reform and the delay in the retirement age, has strongly replied to the unions, in particular, to the leader of the first union in the country, Laurent Berger.

Asked about this, Berger acknowledged this Friday, in an interview with the BFMTV channel, that Borne’s tone has always been one of respect and frank dialogue, quite different from that shown by Macron: “it is different from throwing gasoline on the fire.”

But apart from this question of the tone used by one and the other, the general secretary of the French Democratic Confederation of Labor (CFDT) has repeated that “the most important thing in the end is whether this reform is going to be applied or not” because the opposition on the street and in public opinion “has not moved” and continues to be in the majority.

After the eleventh day of national mobilization organized this Thursday, in which hundreds of thousands of people have once again taken to the streets in demonstrations organized throughout the country, the unions have once again jointly decided to organize what will be the twelfth, on Thursday the 13th.

It will be the eve of the 14th, a key day because it will be then when the Constitutional Council will issue its opinion on whether or not to validate the pension law, whose main and most controversial axis is to delay the minimum retirement age from currently 62 to 64 years.
