AMF Head Baroin: Virus is Not Only Medical Issue But also Civic Protection+Defense. Many Facts Fit.
*Strasbourg/Angelo Marcopolo/(Partly UPDATED)/- COVID-19 Virus' Policy should Not be Exclusively EnTrusted Only to the Ministry of Health, given its current Limits (See Infra), But should have a much Broader Scope, Involving Also the Ministries in charge of Civic Protection and, particularly, Defense, (etc), stressed the Experienced former Many times Minister, Government Spokesman, and Now President of France's Association of Mayors, Francois Baroin, speaking as a Keynote Invitee at the 2020 Annual Congress of French Regions, where Participated also Prime Minister Castex, ECB's Head Lagarde, Senate's President Larcher, European Affairs Minister Beaune, (etc), and for which "Eurofora" had received a Press Invitation to the Video-Conference, (See Also : ..., etc).
- Indeed, well Beyond the Current, Controversial Health Minister Veran, (See, f.ex.: ..., etc), that Post is too Often Linked with certain narrow Lobbies of Interests, (as, f.ex., Big Pharma's relations to Public Hospitals, etc), while, in Fact, Human Lives' and Public Health's Issues May Extend much Further, Including, f.ex., (in Addition to Justice affairs, f.ex. concerning ECHR's relevant case-law, Home affairs and Public Order, etc), Also National Defense, Baroin pointed out.
Such Considerations may also Explain, perhaps, at least partialy, why Veran was, until now, Astonishingly, so Stubbornly Opposed f.ex. to the Simple and Cheap Drug for Anti-Virus' Therapy "HCQ+", (Notoriously Backed by US and Brazil Presidents Trump and Bolsonaro, as well as French Professor Raoult, etc), to the point to commit the Error to Base on a grosssly "Bogus Study", with 11 "Big Flaws", (See : ..., etc), even Moves to Prohibit Scientific Research on "CHQ+", also on WHO's Global Level, Exclude Medical Doctors from Prescribing that well-Known Drug not even to themselves, etc., leading to one of the Biggest Scandals on Establishment's Medical Press in our Century, initialy Whistle-Blowed by "Eurofora", (See : ..., etc), later Known as "LANCET-GATE", etc, but involving also USA's "New England Medical Review", which were, Later, Obliged to "Retract" that Paper, (See : ..., etc). Indeed, "Gilead", the US Company commercializing a Competitor, but much More Expensive Drug, of Dubtful "Efficiency", But full of various "Negative Side Effects" : "Remdesivir", has reportedly Gained, Already, More than 900 Millions $ from being "The Only" Currently Authorized such Drug...
>>> On the Contrary, however, French Defense Minister Parly, has reportedly Stock-piled a lot of "HCQ+" Medical Supplies, as a matter of Precaution, for Eventualy Urgent Army's Needs in the foreseable Future of this Pandemic...
+ Meanwhile, Even France's landmark Military Air-Carrier "De Gaule" was reportedly Blocked by a ...Virus' Infections OutBreak aboard, and Obliged to Stay Immobilized at a SeaPort, precisely when a very "Hot" Issue about EU's currently Unique Oil/Gas Energy Resources at South-Eastern Mediterranean, mostly Located around EU Members Cyprus and Greece, had Faced, last April 2020, Turkey's provocative WarShips' Bullying and Threats, (See, f.ex., among others, also : ..., etc).
++ Earlier, also India's Popular Prime Minister Modi, has Notoriously Faced Loud Accusations by a pro-Pakistan Islamic Foreign Lobby (Previously HeadQuartered in Turkey's Istanbul/Constantinople City, during a Long Period of Time), After a Controversial Trans-National Mass-Meeting of an Islamist Sect, including from Neighbouring Countries, (as Also Indonesia, etc), reportedly "Imported" several Virus' Infections inside New Delhi, and, subsequently, Spread accross several Other Indian Regions where several Participants scattered Afterwards, at the Beginning of the Pandemic's OutBreak, Back on Spring 2020, Provoking Strong Reactions by Many Angered Indian People. Before that Incident, India had an Exceptionaly Good Public Healh Situation, Well Protected against the Virus, also by a Strict Policy of Closure of its Borders towards China, (as Also Russia had initialy done, then, Before being, Later-on, Infected by EU-Imported Cases), But embattled Prime Minister Modi was reportedly DisLiked by Parts of a Muslim Minority, inter alia, apparently, Also Because of his Notorious Efforts to Save from Slaughter the Cows, that the Budhist Majority notoriously considers "Holy", Despite his Efforts to Moderate some People's perhaps excessive Denonciations of what they were Afraid to be a kind of ..."Virus Jihadism" (sic !) by some Extremist Grouplets, as they reportedly Denounced.
+++ In Europe, France has faced, since the Beginning of October 2020, a Sudden Big Acceleration of its Daily Infections Numbers of the Virus' "2nd Wave", soon Becoming (by Far) the Worst-Hit EU Member Country, in Spectacular Proportions, Just After President Macron's Official Policy Announcements, on October 2, against an "Islamist Separatism" Phenomenon, including, also, the Prohibition of "Imported Imams", Chosen, Trained, Funded and Monitored by Foreign States, (as, notoriously, Turkey, in Similar Problems Earlier Found also Imported inside Germany, and Other European Countries). Shortly After that, Macron, and France in general, Notoriously Became a Frequent "Target" of Turkish President Erdogan's Gross Provocations and ..."Too Vulgar" Insults, (as German Chancelor Angie Merkel reportedly Denounced, Together with Many Other EU Top Leaders), of UnPrecedented Hate-Spreading level.... (To the Point that Turkey was Even the Only State which had Not Yet Reacted -until Many Observers made Critical Remarks about ut, Later-on- to the Horrible Be-Heading of French Teacher Samuel Paty, by a Coward Islamist Terrorist born in Chechnya, for having just Discussed with his Students, at a Freedom of Expression Lesson, the Famous "Charlie Hebdo"'s Moameth Cartoons, on Pretext of which, the 1st Massive Massacrre Cowardly Targeting Civilian People in France by ISIL's Islamist Terrorists - Noadays Judged in Paris, with Number 1 Culprit someone Born in Turkey - had, Notoriously, occured on January 2015).
++++ In the Meantime, China has reportedly Discovered the Horrifying Reality of More than ...137 Individuals Infected by (and Spreading) the Deadly Virus, ...But withOut Any Perceptible Symptom on themselves, since they were Completely ... "ASymptomatic" ! This UnPrecedented numerous Collective Incident occured in the Xijiang Western Region of China, reportedly Near its Borders with Islamist Pakistan, (a Notoriously Close Ally to Turkey), at an Area considered to be the Cradle of the troublesome Minority of Turkic "Unghur"s...
+++++ Last (?), but Not Least, even a Long-Forgotten, ...Avian Flu OutBreak hit, Later-on, France's Agricultural Countryside, Topicaly Reminding the Big Problems of a Past Epidemic that had also hit China too), which had Notoriously Originated mainly by that Virus' sources at Eastern Turkey.
>>> All these Strange, but Converging and Alarming Facts, are Not at all Necessarily Linked to the quite Different Controversy about this Deadly Virus' alleged "Natural" or "Artificial" Origin, (f.ex. "made by a Labo", etc), as "Eurofora" has already Observeved, on the occasion of an Astonishingly Long Series of Various "Conservative" Top Political Leaders elsewhere in Europe and across the World personaly Affected by the Virus, (16 were Already traced, to whom were Recently Added also the Polish President Duda -mixed in a "Hot" BioEthical Issue- and Bulgarian Prime Minister Borisev - who had already formed a "Unity of the Right" including on Traditional Values, etc - reaching +18 Cases), withOut Any Similar Incident ever touching upon their "Socialist" Competitors : Indeed, Even a "Naturaly"-Born Virus Might, Perhaps, become Maipulated, Later-on, in Eventual Attempts to Slyly Undermine Political Adversaries, (See, f.ex., at: http://www.eurofora.net/newsflashes/news/manyconservativeshitbyvirus.html, etc).

Recent developments proved that Europe can suceed to overcome challenges by aiming at great objectives, and this is needed also in 2009, said EU chairman, French President Nicolas Sarkozy.
- "It's in the name of Great Ideas, Projects, Ambition and Ideals, that EU can overcome" challenges, stressed Sarkozy at EU Parliament in Strasbourg, in conclusion of a dense 7 months EU Chairmanship. "It's even easier for Europe to have Great projects, able to overcome national egoism, instead of limiting itself only to small projects" (unable to do alike), he observed.
- "Europe must remain Ambitious and understand that the World needs her to take Decisions". "The World needs a Strong Europe", which "thinks on its own, has convictions, its own responses, its imagination" : "A Europe which does not limit itself into following" others, (as it did in the Past, when it followed USA, f.ex. on Bosnia). On the contrary, "Europe should undertake its own responsibilities", he said, after a series of succes in stopping the War between Russia and Georgia, and organizing the 1st EuroZone's Summit in Paris, which incited the Washington DC G-20 Summit to extend similar decisions World-wide.
- "When you sweep it all under the carpet, prepare yourself for hard tomorrows", he warned. "What hinders decisions is the lack of Courage and Will, the fading away of Ideals", he stressed before EU Parliament's 2008 debate on Human Rights and Sakharov prize on Freedom of thought attributed by MEPs to Chinese cyber-dissident Hu Jia, followed by an EU - Turkey meeting on Friday.
- "I don't abandon my convictions" and "I will take initiatives" on EU level also in 2009, Sarkozy announced later. "France will not stop having convictions and taking initiatives" on Europe. + "It's an Error to wish to pass over the Heads of those who are elected in their Countries" : "It's an integrism I always fought against"', he warned.
---------------------
French EU Presidency faced 4 unexpected Crisis :
- An institutional crisis, with the Irish "No" to EU Lisbon Treaty, just before it started. A geopolitical crisis, wth the threat of War between Russia and Georgia risking to throw Europe back to Cold-war divisions, on August. A World-wide Financial and Economic crisis, arriving at a bad moment before crucial 2009 EU elections. And even a Strasbourg's mini-crisis, with EU Parliament's roof curiously falling down, from unknown reasons, in a brand new building on August, provoking an unprecedented transfert of the 2 September Plenary Sessions...
But it wasn't enough to stop Sarkozy ! On the contrary, it stimulated him...
---------------------------------------
- "The better way to deal with the recent problems of EU institutions (as the "3 NO" by France, the Netherlands and Ireland) is to take them as a "Test" in order to find solutions closer to Citizens' concerns", said later in Strasbourg Sarkozy's new choice as Ministe for EU affairs, Bruno Le Maire.
- On the Institutional front, Sarkozy gave Time to the Irish to think about it, and stroke on December a deal including a New Referendum after the June 2009 EU Elections, in exchange of a promise to keep the rule of "one EU Commissioner for each EU Member Country", and some opt-outs on Defence and Fiscal EU policies, Abortion, etc. If the Irish get a "Yes" Majority, then the institutional package could be completed in 2010 or 2011 on the occasion of Croatia's probable EU accession.
He was accused in Strasbourg to upgrade EU Council and downgrade EU Commision, but he replied that "strong Political initiatives by EU Council reinforce also the more technical role of EU Commission, under the political-technical leadership of its President", all 3 "working together with EU Parliament".
- But, meanwhile, Sarkozy energetically spearheaded an Historic 1st Summit of EuroZone's 15 Heads of State and Government at EU's core, exceptionally enlarged to a partial participation of British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, on October 12 in Paris' Elysee palace, which started to tackle succesfully the growing world Financial crisis.
It also paved the way for its endorsement by a subsequent Brussels' 27 EU Member States' gathering, before it all come to Washington's G-20 Summit. And "Europe was united, it asked for the 1st G-20 Summit, and it will also organise the next G-20 Summit on April in London", he observed.
But a Conference with EU, Russia, African and other Developing Countries, hosted in Strasbourg shortly after Washington G-20 Summit by the French EU Presidency, took a Resolution asking to enlarge participation to Global Economic Governance. Many found, indeed, illogic and unacceptable that f.ex. states as Turkey were given a seat at G-20 level, while all African Countries, and even the African Union itself, representing the greatest Continent on Earth, were excluded...
Meanwhile, even USA''s "Paulson No 3" Plan, was, in fact, inspired by Europe's No 1 Plan", Sarkozy observed, largelly applauded by MEPs.
And "Europe showed Solidarity" by mobilizing some 22 Billion credit for Hungary, 1,7 billion for Ukraine, as we do nowadays for Baltic States, etc., he added.
The move on Economy was extended on December by an EU stimulus' plan totalling some 200 billion Euros, including 5 Billions released by EU Commission for big Projects, as well as various parallel National plans for Economic revival, (fex. 26 billions in France alone). They might appear limited, compared to USA President-elect Obama's reported plan to boost the American economy with 800 billion $, but at least succeded to overcome Europe's divisions for the first time on Economic governance, opening new horizons.
- The French President stressed even harder the unique role of an active EU Council's chairmanship, when he moved swiftly and efficiently, at the beginning of August, to succesfully stop War between Russia and Georgia, at the last minute, which threatened to bring Europe back to Cold War division.
"We (EU) also wanted to avoid a situation like in Bosnia, in the Past, when EU was absent, so that our American friends took their responsibilitues, and EU only followed", despite the fact that the conflict took place in Europe. Now, it was the EU who took its responsibilities".
A roadmap towards a new PanEuropean Security policy, before which all unilateral moves to place new Missiles (from USA or Russia) would be freezed, was proposed by Sarkozy after a meeting with Russian president Medvedev, at the eve of Washington DC's G-20 Summit.
Ukraine's "European" character was stressed at a Sarkozy - Jushenko Summit, September in Paris, while EU adopted on December an "Eastern policy", in which, "I'm convinced that our (EU's) future is to find with our Neighbours the conditions for Economic Development. Peace and Security, by explaining them that.. they must respect (Human Rights') Values, and adopt behaviors different from the Past", explained Sarkozy in Strasbourg.
Meanwhile, the "Union for the Mediterranean" was created, since July's Summit if 45 Heads of State and Government in Paris, as "an organisation for a permanent Dialogue, that we need", mainly in order to tackle the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, by bringing together, for the 1st time, Israelis and Arabs, where "Europe must be present, in order to avoid a frontal clash".
- "If Europe doesn't take its part for Peace in the Middle-East, nobody else will do that in our place", Sarkozy stressed.
-----------------------
Meanwhile, other EU Agreements were brokered during the French EU Presidency on Immigration, (fex. common Asylum rules, etc), and Climat- Energy :
- On Climat-Energy, the 2007 German EU Presidency had fixed a triple 20% aim for 2020 (20% renewable Energies, 20% reduction of CO2 emmission, 20% energy efficience/economies), and the 2008 French EU Presidecny realized that, making the necessary compromises in order to modernize EU's industry, but without throwing some former Central-Eastern European Countries into abrupt Economic break down risking "social explosion".
- Defence-Security EU policy was mainly postponed for April 2009, since both German chancellor Merkel and French president Sarkozy want to strike a deal with the new American president Obama in Strasbourg's NATO Summit.
However, with all these 4 unexpected Crisis diverting attention to other urgencies, People wil wonder now, what happened to the famous deal proposed by freshly-elected French President Sarkozy on Turkey's controversial EU bid, back on August 2007, to continue EU - Turkey negotiations, but on the double condition that core chapters, intrinsequally linked with EU Membership, will be excluded, and that a collective Reflexion and Debate on Europe's future would start before the end of 2008.
It was meant to reply to the crucial question : What kind of Europe do we want in 10 or 20 Years from now : A large Market, or a Political Europe, with a popular identity ? In Sarkozy's thinking, presented in his 2 landmark speeches on Europe in Strasbourg, shortly before and after the 2007 Elections, (on February and July 2007), Turkey's controversial EU bid would be incompatible with the second choice.
It's true that EU Commision's Chairman, Jose Barroso, (who had notoriously declared, as former Portuguese Prime Minister, that he found "nonsense" the idea that Europe might become equal to the US), had repeatedly tried to avoid that Sarkozy's criticism on Turkey might start winning a larger audience in Europe, preferring a discrete "wismens' committee" work. And that most of the personalities later chosen in order to participate in a Committee on Europe's Future, are too much linked with Socialist parties and/or American policies, to be really critical of USA's notorious wish to impose Turkey to the EU, as Sarkozy had noted himself since March 2007..
- "It's on EU Council's presidency to take political initiatives. EU Commission has other competences", stressed Sarkozy. The "European Ideal" is to "build Europe with the States, not against them". "Ask Europeans to chose between their countries and Europe won't work. You don't choose between your two parents : We must add them together".
"France and Germany have an Historic Duty to work together, precisely because of what happened to the Past. We have to work hand by hand. We cannot be separated.It goes beyond me and Mrs Merkel today, Mr Schroeder and Mr. Chirac yesterday. It's not a choice, it's a duty to Europe and to the World". "We need Germany, as Germany needs Europe". Compromise is inevitable, here as everywhere, and each one made some steps towards eachother's positions.
But "it's true that Mrs Merkel didn't chose her Socialist partners, while I chose mine", Sarkozy said, in an indirect hint that the Socialist Minister of Finance in Germany might be a cause of minor past disagreements in Economy, which were overcome in recent negotiations.
"We (France and Germany) have particular duties in Europe", but "in a Europe of 27 Member States, it's not enough for France and Germany to agree between them.
"I always thought that Great Britain has a special role to play in Europe. ... Now, everybody "saw what it cost payed the UK for having been too exclusively open towards the US (and) Financial services. Europe needs the UK, but also the UK needs Europe" :- "We were able to face the hardest moment of the Financial crisis because the UK clearly chose Europe", stressed Sarkozy, reminding Gordon Brown's exceptional participation to the Historic 1st Heads of State/Government Summit of EuroZone, October 12 in Paris (See EuroFora's Reportage from Elysee Palace then).
- "Some look at Europe with old glasses aged 30 years ago. While we must look at her in relation to what it will be in 30 years" in the Future, Sarkozy concluded.
