Olivier Faure, the first secretary of the French Socialist Party, has requested that President Emmanuel Macron convene a meeting with party leaders to discuss the ongoing war in the Middle East. Faure draws a parallel with the Gulf War, when former Prime Minister Michel Rocard would meet with party representatives at the Hôtel de Matignon to share tactical information and strategic reflections.

«Lors de la guerre du Golfe, Michel Rocard avait convié les représentants des partis politiques et des groupes parlementaires à l’hôtel de Matignon chaque semaine pour partager informations tactiques et réflexions stratégiques», rappelle le premier secrétaire du PS.
