Macron balaye les droits humains et le climat d'un revers de main
Summary
The Forum citoyen pour la justice économique and several NGOs condemn President Emmanuel Macron's announcement at the Choose France summit to 'discard' the European Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CS3D). The statement argues that this move aligns France with the deregulatory policies of US President Donald Trump and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, as well as the goals of Jordan Bardella's party to repeal the European Green Deal and due diligence requirements. The authors claim this decision prioritizes industrial lobbies over human rights and climate urgency, and they call for the preservation of the text to hold multinationals accountable.
