PRESIDENT MACRON ADRESSES HIS SPEECH IN ENGLISH AT VOLVO´S PRESS CONFERENCE President Macron addressed his speech in English at the press conference on 17 November, on the sidelines of the Goteberg Social Summit, at Volvo headquarters, alongside Prime Minister Stefan Lofvel. This is the first time that a French head of State expresses himself with such precision and ease in almost perfect English (Despite the so persistent French accent!) at a European summit and for the great pleasure of the international press, generally speaking English. The French President killed two birds with one stone, as he made a great first (to silence the bad tongues on the arrogance of the French who refuse to speak English “¦) and also overwhelmingly pleased the international press. Emmanuel Macron then took the floor in French at the end of the conference to make the acknowledgments and also to answer the French press. Many officials from the French delegation, attended the European Social Summit but also the vitiate of Volvo´s headquarters, including French Labor Minister Muriel Penicaud, Bruno Blain of Renault Trucks, as well as French diplomatic advisers. The Volvo Headquarters was also present as well as those from Ericsson and Integrum. The press conference followed a short guided visit by Volvo, about the potentialities of Volvo's electric vehicles, and an arm prosthesis, fixed to a patient with disabilities at Integrum. President Macron was fascinated by this technology and spent time talking to this patient, seeking to co-ordinate the anteriority of his disability and the choice of a prosthesis rather than a transplant. The head of Eat Francais then asked the patient to kindly shake his hand with his prosthetic arm. What both did for a handshake, strong, warm and symbolic of the power of technology in the service of men. Anchored bone prostheses are an innovative technology based on osteointegration. This process allows the direct connection of an artificial limb (prosthesis) to the skeleton of the patient, thus avoiding the use of a nest. A bone anchored prosthesis will always be reliable, it will accompany the patient's movements quickly and correctly. Insofar as it is not in contact with the skin, all issues related to nesting are eliminated. It allows the wearing of the artificial limb continuously for greater comfort, and provides endurance, in addition there is only the bone anchored prosthesis that provides the possibility of freedom of movement and osteo-perception.

So (In France) we are decreasing the number of laws and to accurate this culture of compromise when you are in an economy of skills you need to create new jobs and completely change this change of the model and implement very quickly & protect people by social dialogue but also to train them for a change and for new jobs“ PRESIDENT MACRON & STEFAN LOFVEL PM, AGREED THAT SEXUAL HARASSMENT IS A SHAME AND MUST MSUT BE PUNISHED----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I´m so poled by these terrible experiences put by all these women, it is very disgusting, many actors, students, now politicians we need to have fest to make sure that you make fil in the police through the while legal system and the guilty must be convicted no tolerance at all. Not only in our society, in all the countries all over the world, nobody can magian the scale of the problem. We need to know how to behave and boys and young men must know how to ne a MAN a man who sexually harass, must respect a woman and we have to be very tough and make sure to convict crime and make more. it is a SHAME, for our society. Prime Minsiiter Lofvel answered to a Swedish journalist about in this period of multiplication of sexual harassment cases, in the world of cinema and politics recently. President Macron and Prime Minister Stefan Lofvel's shared the same views on sexual harassment and the steps to be taken to reduce cases of male domination by harassing women, and punish the perpetrators of these despicable acts: “You don´t have the exclusivity of this behaviours and the same shame and situation. When we launched my campaign (Presidential Campaign, April 2017) we made polls to ask people about what they were expecting, and at that time, they have answered about sexual harassment. It is time to change this and the whole mindset and not dominating anymore, and it is about a social violence and sexual violence.---------------------------------------------------- So we must educate people, it is critical and in the same movement we need to make a debate and avoid to replace the prosecution by the debate.e of the most important items. This is why I wanted to create this Ministry of Gender Equity, so that you´d be more opened on someone in the society or at home if you don´t feel free, you can resist much clearer. The public debate is not the only solution, women must go to the police to declare it, and we will increase the police service and frame they so that the perpetrators will have to be punished not just by being named“
