Deconfinement on May 11th: “not a certitude but a goal” Christophe Castaner says

While French President Emmanuel Macron gave – during his address on April 13^th – May 11^th as a deconfinement date in France, Secretary of the Interior Christophe Castaner wished to add details to the Head of State’s statements.

Invited this Tuesday April 14^th on France Inter, Christophe Castaner explained deconfinement from May 11^th was “not a certitude but a goal”.

“What the French President has announced last night isn’t deconfinement on May 11^th, it’s confinement up to May 11^th. There are conditions to deconfine on May 11^th: discipline, discipline of respecting confinement. Then, it’s the fight we have to lead together to slow down the propagation of the virus”.

And the Secretary of the Interior added that over 11,8 million controls have already been made throughout France and about 704,000 offenses have been reported since March 17^th for breaking confinement.

All deconfinement conditions in France have not been explained yet by the French President or Christophe Castaner. The latter says “Government will present within two weeks a post May-11 plan and will take into account all issues. Because the truth is that right now, it’s not the one we will now in a week time. It’s on these bases, on scientific and medical bases that the government will present a precise action plan”
