Charlotte Baris: 1h23 is the total duration of the speech of which you have just heard an extract. A speech given by Robert Badinter, who has just passed away at the age of 95 and know that this episode is very special for L’Express. To explain everything to you, I welcome Anne Marion, who is a documentalist at L’Express, that is to say she regularly immerses herself in the archives of the newspaper and French history… Anne, so you know this speech of 1h23, delivered on September 17, 1981 by Robert Badinter, before the National Assembly. And it is dedicated to the abolition of the death penalty.
Anne Marion: Yes, this historic speech is the culmination of a long fight for Robert Badinter. When he says it, he is François Mitterrand’s Minister of Justice. Let me tell you a little about the circumstances
