Il y a bien peu d’exemple que la presse \u00e9trang\u00e8re se soit tant int\u00e9ress\u00e9e \u00e0 un homme politique fran\u00e7ais sans position internationale pro\u00e9minente. Nicolas Sarkozy occupe \u00e0 cet \u00e9gard une place exceptionnelle. Il a acquis le c\u00e9l\u00e9brit\u00e9 outre-manche, dans la presse anglo-saxonne, voire dans la presse am\u00e9ricaine. C’est peut-\u00eatre ce qu’il cherche du point de vue de l’effet, cela pourrait se r\u00e9v\u00e9ler moins satisfaisant du point de vue du contenu.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\tCe qui passionne la presse \u00e9trang\u00e8re, c’est la conjonction de deux faits. Le premier est la concurrence avec Chirac, qui remplit un vu affich\u00e9 des Anglo-Saxons que Chirac laisse sa place \u00e0 un concurrent jug\u00e9 mieux intentionn\u00e9 \u00e0 l’\u00e9gard des Anglo-Saxons. (Tout cela, pure sp\u00e9culation.) Le second \u00e9l\u00e9ment, ce sont les ennuis conjugaux de Sarkozy, apportant un \u00e9l\u00e9ment intime bienvenu pour la justification de cet int\u00e9r\u00eat mais avec une dimension politique indiscutable. Exemple de cet int\u00e9r\u00eat, le texte de The Independent du 15 juillet<\/a>, sous le titre : \u00ab Sarkozy ridicules Chirac’s ‘pointless’ Bastille Day speech<\/em> \u00bb.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00ab \t(….)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bb M. Sarkozy’s bravado – extreme even for him – has encouraged speculation that he might have been unsettled by troubles in his marriage. His friends say that he is deliberately adopting a high-profile – but also high-risk – policy of being in government and opposition at the same time. He is determined that his own popularity should not be damaged by association with M. Chirac, or M. de Villepin.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bb How long President Chirac will be able to tolerate such open disloyalty, even mockery, is unclear.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bb The Defence Minister, Mich\u00e8le Alliot-Marie, gave a public warning yesterday that the patience of M. Sarkozy’s ministerial colleagues may be wearing thin. "Those who were bowing and scraping to the President of the Republic a few weeks ago should tell themselves there is no point trying to weaken him with criticisms of this kind," she said.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \tCette popularit\u00e9 de Sarkozy, bas\u00e9e sur la pol\u00e9mique qu’il alimente lui-m\u00eame dans divers domaines, pourrait \u00eatre consid\u00e9r\u00e9e comme un grand avantage pour l’adversaire de Chirac. D’un autre c\u00f4t\u00e9, et notamment \u00e0 cause du temps long sur lequel va s’exercer cette popularit\u00e9 avant la pr\u00e9sidentielle de 2007, l’image de Sarkozy risquerait d’\u00e9voluer jusqu’\u00e0 celle d’une sorte de candidat de l’\u00e9tranger qui pourrait le desservir aupr\u00e8s de l’\u00e9lectorat, d’autant qu’il s’agirait du candidat du mod\u00e8le anglo-saxon’ dans un pays o\u00f9 ce mod\u00e8le est rien moins que populaire.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \tMis en ligne le 16 juillet 2005 \u00e0 13H15<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Il y a bien peu d’exemple que la presse \u00e9trang\u00e8re se soit tant int\u00e9ress\u00e9e \u00e0 un homme politique fran\u00e7ais sans position internationale pro\u00e9minente.
