Dominique de Villepin will not be candidate with the presidential election. The former Prime Minister of Jacques Chirac did not manage to gather money necessary to reach by the supreme vote: 500 sponsorships of elected officials. Which message must it from now on send to the 1% voters who intended to vote in his favour with the first turn of the poll?

Gaullist of conviction, the ex-minister of the Foreign affairs, author of the famous speech before the assembly of UNO against the participation of France in the war in Iraq in the State-Plain-Kingdom-Plain side of the coalition, opposed politically in the past Nicolas Sarkozy.

The competition between Villepin and the president-candidate knew his paroxysm at the time of the Clearstream lawsuit but these tensions are since repercussions and were even standardized.

Eliminated from the race in the Elysium, Dominique de Villepin must join himself the banner of Nicolas Sarkozy?
