“A great French destiny,” “a certain idea of the left”: Emmanuel Macron will pay a national tribute on Thursday to former Socialist prime minister Lionel Jospin, who died on Sunday and was a leading figure of the “plural left” coalition that governed from 1997 to 2002. FRANCE 24's Clémence Waller reports from the ceremony.
