Yassine Belattar responds to his detractors

Criticized by the far right because of his presence in the delegation accompanying Emmanuel Macron to Rabat, the comedian Yassine Belattar expressed his “pride” at having been invited, as a “French and Moroccan artist”, to take part in this trip alongside the French head of state.

In an interview on Tuesday on BFMTV, Yassine Belattar affirmed his legitimacy in being part of this delegation in his capacity as a “French and Moroccan artist”. “I’ve been doing this job for 20 years,” recalled the comedian, before adding: “There are 122 people in the delegation, it’s a very good day for the relationship between France and Morocco.” . Belattar also expressed his “pride in returning to Morocco, with a plane with “French Republic” written on it and in succeeding in reconciling the history of the two countries that forged me.” “This page is magnificent to write,” he added.
