Mélenchon vows to disrupt Lecornu's Matignon meeting as LFI confirms attendance

Jean-Luc Mélenchon announced Tuesday that La France insoumise will attend Thursday's meeting at Matignon called by Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu, but vowed to "ruin" the gathering, which he called "very strange." The meeting follows weekend violence and pillaging, with the executive and LFI trading blame. Mélenchon mocked Lecornu's letter, rejecting its call for political parties to condemn violence, and dismissed discussion of presidential campaign security as a topic. Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella will be represented at the meeting, with Bardella calling it a "class council." Environmentalist candidate Marine Tondelier will attend but criticized the letter for lacking solutions to the social crisis.
