The Socialist candidate for the French presidential election, Ms. Ségolène Royal, confirmed her intention to continue mediation between Algeria and France in order to bridge the gap plaguing bilateral relations, in response to the fiery attack she faced from some far-right circles after announcing her candidacy for the upcoming French presidential election.
Immediately after the “tweet” through which the president of the “France-Algeria” association, Ms. Ségolène Royal, announced her participation in the French presidential elections, media outlets owned by the far-right businessman, Vincent Bolloré, such as the “CNews” channel and “Le Journal du Dimanche”, launched a concentrated campaign against the Socialist candidate, describing her as the “voice of Algeria” in the upcoming French presidential election.
