Ludivine Dedonder makes Theo Francken fulminate. The member of the Defense Committee did not hide his doubts about the communication strategy of the Minister of Defense, who is very active on social networks, in particular on TikTok. A practice denounced by the Flemish deputy, who regrets that she uses an application promoting Chinese espionage.
But it’s also Ludivine Dedonder’s outfit that bothers Theo Francken. The latter does not appreciate at all that she goes to work wearing sneakers, as she has proudly displayed in recent days. “In terms of lightness, there are gradations. The fact that you go to work in sneakers in your cabinet, as a Minister, you may find that appropriate, but I do not find it. There is war in Europe, I think that as Minister of Defence, in times of war, you have to be a little careful”, launched the deputy.
Response from the principal concerned? “Whether I do it with sneakers or with stilettos, what matters is the action“. A lively, somewhat tense exchange, which adds to Theo Francken’s list of remarks on his Defense counterpart.
