Gerald Darmanin Visits An Amazon Distribution Center
French director of Amazon France Frederic Duval (2R) accompanied by Amazon France Operations Director Ronan Bole (1R) speaks with French Minister of Public Action and Accounts Gerald Darmanin (2L) and French Junior Minister for Digital affairs Cedric O (1L) during a visit of the Amazon distribution center in Vélizy-Villacoublay in the suburb of Paris on September 23, 2019.
