Dear Christian, Yesterday you affirmed : « The institutional opposition to the Notre-Dame-des-Landes airport must stop being the legal display of an armed movement ». It would be easy to blame you, Mr. Prefect, of wanting yourself to destroy some display cases.

A l’attention des journalistes,
Le dossier de presse ci-joint vous permettra de mieux appréhender votre venue sur la zone. Il a été réalisé par le groupe presse qui fait le lien entre les journalistes et les habitant-e-s de la ZAD. Nous ne sommes pas des professionnels de l’accueil des journalistes, et nous ne sommes pas disponibles en permanence. Mais nous sommes joignables par mail zadcontacpresse@riseup.net et téléphone 06 95 06 81 49 et tenterons de vous répondre. Nous ne sommes pas des porte paroles du mouvement d’occupation, nous nous exprimons en tant qu’habitant-e-s.
Comme vous le savez déjà, la ZAD est un lieu de lutte contre un aéroport mais aussi un lieu de vie. Comme dans n’importe quel village, il y a des espaces d’intimité où les gens n’ont pas envie d’être pris-es en photos ou filmé-e-s. Si vous voulez prendre des images, merci de nous solliciter pour vous accompagner. Nous ne voulons pas personnaliser prises de paroles et interviews. Pour cela nous nous appelons toutes et tous « Camille ». Certaines personnes que vous voudrez filmer ou prendre en photo ne souhaiteront pas voir leur visage dans les médias, merci de respecter ce souhait.
Bonne lecture et à très bientôt sur la ZAD.

Leak concerning a future police intervention on the ZAD People regularly send us “leaks” or rumors about works or police actions that are supposed to happen on the Zone À Défendre.
