EPN in Eastern Ukraine People are very worried This will

On January 19, 2023, the members of the Socialist Party voted for the renewal of the 1st secretary. The victory of the outgoing Olivier Faure with some 500 votes in advance is disputed by the camp of Nicolas Mayer-Rossignol. Will this internal battle weigh heavily during the 80th Party Congress which will open on January 27 in Marseilles? We discuss it with Aurélien Devernoix, journalist in the political service of RFI.

In this episode of News cookiesrecorded on January 23, Aurelien Devernoix explains why the result of the vote of the members of the Socialist Party is so close. Some 500 votes separate Olivier Faure and Nicolas Mayer-Rossignol. Our colleague details the points of divergence between the two candidates and the different currents which clash at the dawn of the 80th Congress of the PS. Aurélien also tells why it is sometimes difficult for political journalists to follow this internal battle.
