#France will today lay to rest #RobertBadinter in the Pantheon alongside #MarieCurie and #VictorHugo. Badinter was responsible for abolishing the #deathpenalty in France. Therefore, he can be seen as someone who went against the populists and back then won. He died in 2024 and today marks the anniversary of the abolition of death penalty in France. #france24_en #france24_en
