« I cannot reword »
« I cannot reword »e Hugues Vigier, en réponse aux propos tenus par le ministre de l’Intérieur lundi soir sur CNews.
« I cannot reword. »
He spoke out following the publication on X by the international footballer, expressing « all my prayers for the people of Gaza who are once again victims of these unjust bombings that spare neither women nor children. »
« Prier le 15 octobre pour des populations civiles sous les bombes qui n’épargnent ni les femmes ni les enfants ne constitue évidemment ni ‘propagande pour le Hamas’, ni ‘complicité de terrorisme ni actes de collaboration’ », a soutenu Me Vigier.
Envisager la déchéance de nationalité pour des nationaux natifs, si on remonte dans le temps de l’Histoire, c’est l’Allemagne nazie.
« I want to believe that it is natural compassion in the face of what many today qualify as war crimes being committed in Gaza, but this does not diminish the horror of the terrorist acts on October 7, which are not up for debate, » he added, announcing on Thursday that he will file a defamation lawsuit against Gérald Darmanin for spreading false information.
Sur RMC, il poursuivi: « Karim Benzema est français, il n’a pas la double nationalité », souligne Me Hugues Vigier, dans Apolline Matin sur RMC. « Envisager la déchéance de nationalité pour des nationaux natifs, si on remonte dans le temps de l’Histoire, c’est l’Allemagne nazie. Voilà où nous en sommes aujourd’hui dans cette course à la surenchère vers l’extrême droite et des propositions calamiteuses. »
« A gradual shift in Karim Benzema’s stances. »
When asked about the possibility of legal action by the minister, his entourage replied that the player’s « statements » do not warrant legal proceedings. However, they added that they are a particularly vague signal coming from an athlete with such a large following.

On Tuesday, the LR senator Valérie Boyer, on her part, requested the revocation of Karim Benzema’s nationality and the withdrawal of his Ballon d’Or. « We cannot accept that a French dual national (Karim Benzema is Franco-Algerian, editor’s note), internationally recognized, can dishonor and even betray our country in this way, » wrote Senator X.
The player’s refusal to sing the French national anthem during selections for the French team, his promotion of Islamic practices on social media such as fasting, prayer, and pilgrimage to Mecca, or his support for the Russian MMA fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov’s publication, which incited hatred following the publication of caricatures of the prophet Muhammad in the French press, were cited.
Né à Lyon, Karim Benzema, âgé de 35 ans, est considéré comme l’un des meilleurs attaquants de sa génération. Il a rejoint le club saoudien Al-Ittihad.
