The municipality of Camaret-sur-Aigues reacted to an article published in Vaucluse Matin on Friday, October 30, titled "The commune in the 'Ugly France' ranking". The town regrets that the first paragraph of the text it had provided was not published and therefore requests a rectification.
The Town highlights the links between the President of the association "Paysages de France", Mr. Jean-Marie Delalande, and the far-left media outlet Mediapart. It is specified that the latter directly contributes to the blog hosted by this media, as evidenced by an attached document.
In the context of upcoming electoral deadlines and Mediapart's editorial stances, these elements lead the municipality to question the motivations and conditions under which this distinction was awarded to the commune.
The Town of Camaret-sur-Aigues, whose political affiliation is associated with the Rassemblement National, thus questions the potential political dimension of this criticism, beyond the sole landscape criteria that should normally guide such an assessment.
The municipality concludes that this "pseudo-award" is "completely off the mark" and masks a reality that many know: "Camaret is a beautiful village, which continues to be beautified thanks to the excellent work of elected officials and agents."
