French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu has accused La France Insoumise (LFI) deputy Aymeric Caron of antisemitism, citing remarks Caron allegedly made in 2024. Lecornu, speaking at the annual CRIF dinner, stated that Caron's comments, suggesting a division of humanity based on support for Gaza, were characteristic of "new antisemites" and echoed sentiments from the 20th century. Caron vehemently denies these accusations, calling them a "lie" and announcing his intention to file a defamation lawsuit against the Prime Minister. Caron asserts that the specific phrase attributed to him by Lecornu was never uttered or written by him, and he views the Prime Minister's statements as an attempt to discredit him and fuel ongoing harassment.
