He will soon be back on the bench, as if nothing had happened. While the executive pension reform project is to be examined in the Senate from March 2 to 12, Gabriel Attal is eager to participate in the debates and scrap with the opposition. As he has already done – in a much more heated atmosphere – at the National Assembly in February. But, to wait during the passage from one Chamber to another, the Minister Delegate for Public Accounts took advantage of the current parliamentary truce to afford a diplomatic interlude across the Atlantic.

Arrived in the United States over the weekend, the young tenant from Bercy thus began his first major international trip, scheduled to last five days. “In New York and Washington, I meet with my counterparts to move towards enhanced information sharing in customs and tax matters. A real common ambition and concrete avenues“, he published on Twitter, supporting photos. Social network where he also relayed a “post” from local authorities, thanking him for having personally presented the “prestigious” Customs Medal of Honor to an American agent.

In addition to the main component, purely linked to his government portfolio, Gabriel Attal’s program includes other ancillary and much more political stages, such as a meeting with the French community. As well as a passage in a show on the MSNBC channel. Questioned by a former Democratic activist now converted into a television debater, the former socialist mentioned various themes, ranging from the Russian-Ukrainian war to the attractiveness of France for foreign investment. All in English in the text.
