The Minister of the Interior’s accusations against the footballer were very badly received by a former French international.
It’s a cry from the heart that should not leave Karim Benzema indifferent: Jérôme Rothen pointed out Gérald Darmanin’s accusations against the footballer. The Minister of the Interior had suggested that Benzema was maintaining “ famous links » with the Muslim Brotherhood, considered a terrorist organization.
“ I am not a friend of Karim Benzema. Mr. Darmanin, he governs us, he is Minister of the Interior. But actually shut up! Just shut up, thundered Jérôme Rothen on RMC. If you want to open it, you give proof. If you don’t have proof, I find it disgusting! The political recovery that they can make… He is Minister of the Interior, you allow yourself to speak like that about a French citizen, but where are we going? Where are we going ? He’s a minister, damn it! He’s not just a football player like me. It drives me crazy. If Karim Benzema has proof, let him bring us the proof. He takes the problem completely backwards. If he doesn’t have proof, shut up! It’s not because you are Minister of the Interior that you are obliged to open it. »
“ You already did something stupid to us at the Stade de France by putting the English forward. He never took responsibility, he never apologized to the English, even though it was he who was responsible. And today he’s giving us a new look at Karim Benzema? But it’s too easy! If it is a danger, if you take shortcuts, Mr. Darmanin, then take shortcuts on the real dangers of our society, and lock those away“, concluded the former French international.
