At the Council of Ministers meeting on Wednesday 19 June, Emmanuel Macron called for “discussion sessions” on racism and anti-Semitism to be organised in schools in the coming days. This decision follows the indictment on Tuesday of two 13-year-olds for gang rape, death threats, anti-Semitic insults and violence against a 12-year-old girl in Courbevoie (Hauts-de-Seine).
