Investigation to probe “respect for republican values” in higher education
Laurent Marcangeli, president of France’s centre-right Horizons political party, has said he will launch a parliamentary inquiry into whether republican values are being upheld within universities and grande écoles.
Speaking to the newspaper Le Figaro, Marcangeli said it was necessary in light of the pro-Palestine student protests involving campus blockades and occupations that swept across France in recent weeks.
