Jean-Luc Melenchon believes that France may be on the verge of a new revolution. “There it is, France. And that's what we've come to. I don't want to give you a direct answer to the question of whether the current situation is pre-revolutionary: I understand how absurd it is to predict events that later do not occur. Or they are still happening. But it can be said that there are many elements of a so-called revolutionary situation. Not to be confused with barricades. That's not the point. A revolutionary situation is a period in which fundamental changes occur, such as the transition from an old regime to a republic. It's a change in the system." Video not loading? Look at Mach!
