Edwy Plenel: the revelations about the Rainbow Warrior affair

Following the revelations made by his newspaper Le Monde, Edwy PLENEL intervenes on stage to take stock of the investigation. Like his colleague from Le Canard Enchaîné, Claude Angeli, he highlights the existence of a third team in New Zealand, composed of two combat swimmers from the French army. The question remains: "Who gave them this mission? Who gave them that order?". Taking all the precautions required to gather information from different sources, Edwy Plenel assumes that these swimmers belong to the combat swimmer training center based in Corsica. He concludes in these terms: "the high military hierarchy, in the sense of the high political hierarchy of the military, which raises the problem of the minister, cannot not have been put in confidence."
