During his speech on Monday, April 13, French President Emmanuel Macron called on the European Community to help the African continent to fight the coronavirus and its economic benefits.
For him it is essential to help this continent especially by massively canceling its debt. “France and Europe will have to help Africa fight against the coronavirus by massively canceling its debt,” the French president said on Monday.
“Beyond European overhaul, we must also know how to help our neighbors in Africa fight against the virus more effectively, also help them economically by canceling their debt massively,” he continued.
On the other hand, he announced that confinement will be extended in France until May 11.
