France's Finance Minister Demands Tech Firm Capgemini Explain ICE Contract
The French government demands transparency from Capgemini amid concerns over its US subsidiary’s contract with ICE, while far-left lawmakers seek investigations and sanctions against the agency.
- On Tuesday, Finance Minister Roland Lescure urged Capgemini to review its activities after reports a U.S. subsidiary signed a contract with United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement , pressing for transparency and calling the explanation insufficient.
- Last week, reporting by L’Observatoire des multinationales and France 2 revealed the deal, finding Capgemini Government Solutions supplied ICE with a tool, and CEO Aiman Ezzat said he learned `from public sources` of the contract signed in December.
- Capgemini said its US arm operates autonomously with segregated networks and controls, and the independent U.S. board of CGS has begun reviewing the contract and launched a group-level review.
- Lawmakers from La France insoumise tabled a non-binding resolution against ICE urging France to condemn alleged human rights violations, seek an international probe, freeze European assets, and ban identified ICE agents from the EU.
- Union pressure and planned overseas ICE deployments increase political stakes as the CGT trade union demands an immediate halt to cooperation and ICE plans missions to Italy for the Winter Olympic Games .
