During the first session of the French National Assembly on July 18, left-wing MP Francois Piquemal used a rock-paper-scissors motion to avoid shaking hands with Flavien Termet, the newly appointed MP from Le Pen’s National Rally party. The 22-year-old Termet, representing the National Rally, is traditionally expected to shake hands with fellow MPs after votes. However, members of the far-left alliance collectively refused to shake their hands. A video of the incident, which was live-streamed during the session, has since gone viral on social media, drawing significant attention and discussion, particularly at the Piquemal rock-paper-scissor motion.
