Figaro letter of October 20, 2022

Dear readers,

Today, Europe is meeting. Brussels welcomes the Twenty Seven for a European Council that will talk, I suspect, about energy. Deliberating and making decisions at the age of twenty-seven is not easy. That is why the meetings are unlikely to lead to an agreement on energy price caps, as France and many other countries (but not Germany) would like.

The letter of the day also takes you to the trial of the Paris-Rio flight disaster thirteen years after the accident, it tells about the challenges that await Jean Castex as the head of the RATP and raises the alarm about the disappearance of the municipality. secretaries, pillars rural towns in France. And then, we will read Rimbaud. Because if you certainly don’t need an excuse to (re)read your passages, it’s most appropriate to do so on your birthday.

Happy reading, dear subscribers, and may your day be sweet.

Louise Darbon
