Si les relations entre le président et sa secrétaire générale n’étaient pas au beau fixe d’après deux sources internes, aucun signe avant-coureur ne laissait présager une telle décision. Celle-ci surprend d’autant plus que la nomination d’Aurélie Bretonneau, fin mars 2025, avait été validée par Richard Ferrand, tout juste installé à la tête du Conseil constitutionnel.

Iran launched a new wave of missiles against Israel early on Tuesday, hours after US President Donald Trump hailed “very good” talks to end the war despite Tehran denying any dialogue had taken place.
