M. Sébastien Nadot interroge M. le ministre de l'Europe et des affaires étrangères sur les relations diplomatiques de la France avec le Brésil. Il y a un an, en juillet 2019, la France avait subi un camouflet diplomatique à travers l'annulation au dernier moment d'une rencontre prévue du ministre des affaires étrangères de la France avec le président de la République du Brésil Jair Bolsonaro, lequel avait prétexté un rendez-vous chez le coiffeur. Avec plus de 210 millions d'habitants, le Brésil est la 7ème puissance économique mondiale. La doctrine diplomatique du Président de la République Emmanuel Macron est de « parler avec tout le monde ». Il lui demande quel est l'état actuel des relations diplomatiques de la France avec le Brésil.

Question 31811 — logement

France · National Assembly · 7 November 2020

Mme Laurence Trastour-Isnart interroge Mme la ministre de la transition écologique sur les conséquences du décret prochainement publié relatif « au critère de performance énergétique dans la définition du logement décent pris pour l'application de l'article 17 de la loi n° 2019-1147 du 8 novembre 2019 relative à l'énergie et au climat en France métropolitaine ». En effet, l'article 17 prévoit que le Gouvernement fixe un seuil maximal de consommation énergétique, exprimé en énergie finale, au-delà duquel le logement doit être considéré comme indécent. Aussi, le Gouvernement a annoncé publier un décret visant à fixer le seuil « d'indécence énergétique » en France métropolitaine à une consommation de 500 kilowattheures par mètre carré et par an en énergie finale. Sa date d'entrée en vigueur serait fixée au 1er janvier 2023. Dans un reportage du journal Le Monde du 27 juillet 2020, Mme la ministre de la transition écologique a annoncé que « cela permettra aux personnes qui vivent dans ces passoires thermiques des logements qui consomment plus de 500 kilowattheures par mètre carré et par an d'exiger du propriétaire qu'il fasse des travaux, au risque que le juge interdise à ce dernier de percevoir un loyer, voire interdise la location d'un tel logement ». Aussi, elle lui demande les conséquences concrètes de ces obligations de rénovation vis-à-vis du propriétaire d'un logement en immeuble collectif lorsque la copropriété refuserait de faire exécuter les travaux nécessaires à l'amélioration de l'isolation. Elle lui demande aussi les conséquences à l'égard du propriétaire et de la copropriété d'un immeuble dont la configuration architecturale empêcherait la réalisation de l'isolation par l'extérieur.

Question 31803 — impôts et taxes

France · National Assembly · 7 November 2020

Mme Laurence Trastour-Isnart attire l'attention de M. le ministre de l'économie, des finances et de la relance, sur le différentiel de fiscalité applicable au biocarburant produit à partir de graisses de flottation comparativement à d'autres biocarburants. En effet, certains acteurs du monde agricole ont développé, grâce à d'importants investissements en recherche et développement, un biocarburant dit avancé, produit à partir de graisses de flottation. En raison même de leur matière première, les biocarburants avancés affichent une température limite de filtrabilité (TLF) de + 10 degrés Celsius et figent au-dessous de cette température. De fait, avec le climat moyen français, ces biocarburants avancés sont utilisables pendant la période estivale en incorporation 100 % (on parle alors de B100). Le reste de l'année, une formule incluant 30 % de biocarburant avancé (B30, déjà défini par le code des douanes) contribuerait à une réduction considérable des émissions de GES des flottes captives toute l'année. Or, contrairement au B100 qui bénéficie d'une TICPE allégée, le B30 n'est pas soutenu fiscalement. Pourtant, tout converge pour prouver que les biocarburants avancés à base de graisses de flottation constituent de véritables alternatives écologiques aux énergies fossiles. D'autres carburants défiscalisés au prorata de la quantité de biocarburant avancé incorporée pourraient être définis, par exemple le B50, constitué à 50 % de biocarburant avancé. Ce carburant représente le compromis optimal entre les contraintes techniques d'incorporation du biocarburant avancé et la réduction de l'impact carbone du secteur des transports. Sans ces adaptations, la France ne pourra répondre aux objectifs européens demandant 3,5 % d'incorporation de biocarburant avancé dans les transports en 2030. Aussi, soucieuse d'adapter le cadre fiscal aux enjeux incontournables de la transition écologique et énergétique, elle l'interroge pour savoir comment il compte réformer la TICPE afin de rendre l'utilisation de ces biocarburants avancés en flotte captive plus compétitive en toute circonstance.

Question 31802 — immigration

France · National Assembly · 7 November 2020

M. José Evrard attire l'attention de M. le ministre de l'intérieur sur les évènements en Martinique et sur tout lieu du territoire national. Après les honteuses et stupides destructions en Martinique des statues de Colbert et de Victor Schœlcher, le père de l'abolition de l'esclavage, c'est au tour de celles de Joséphine de Beauharnais et de Pierre Belain d'Esnambuc de subir le même sort. Aux discours antiesclavagistes et anticolonialistes se substituent dorénavant des actions calquées sur le mouvement américain du « black lives matter » visant à faire de l'homme blanc le responsable de tous les maux de la planète dont il faut éradiquer les représentations voire la présence. On est en plein délire, or il semble malheureusement que les responsables politiques ont depuis fort longtemps alimenté la machine qui éclate au grand jour. On ne peut, en effet, qu'être frappé par la correspondance avec le repentir permanent vis-à-vis de l'histoire de France comme de la culpabilité vis-à-vis du développement économique destructeur du climat. L'abattage en France des statues en est le fruit. La négation par les dirigeants successifs du passé somme toute glorieux et la dilution de l'État dans un conglomérat antinational et européiste sont la source de cette haine de la France dans les populations étrangères du territoire. Dans un passé récent, l'appréciation équilibrée de la colonisation dans un texte législatif visant la formation des collégiens et lycéens ne fût pas promulgué, que dire du « crime contre l'humanité » attribué à l'œuvre colonisatrice par la plus haute autorité. Le retour dans l'actualité des conditions du décès du délinquant Adama Traoré est à cet égard significatif. Des représentants des partis de gauche ont manifesté leur soumission au cours de séances de contrition collective pitoyables participant à cette orchestration de la condamnation de l'histoire nationale. Quel crédit peut-on accorder à une telle nation ? Il n'est pas étonnant que le ressentiment de la communauté d'origine africaine, présente sur le territoire national, à l'égard de la France ne cesse de s'aviver, provoquant, chez les nouvelles générations de celle-ci, la justification d'actes incivils, délictuels voire criminels. Quel avenir donner à la génération des enfants de l'immigration lorsqu'il leur est répété à l'envi que la nation d'accueil est criminelle ? Ce qu'annonçait, en démissionnant de son poste, un ministre de l'intérieur se produit désormais malheureusement quotidiennement. Les Français assistent médusés à quelque chose qui leur apparaît tenir du rituel de la préparation à des actions de plus grande envergure. Le fossé entre les Français « de souche » et les nouveaux venus ne peut que s'agrandir. Il est temps que les pouvoirs publics sortent de cette autoflagellation pour prendre la mesure de ce qui est en train de se passer et engagent les mesures fortes, adéquates, contraires à tout ce qui est poursuivi depuis la mise en place des mesures de rapprochement familial. Il lui demande si une nouvelle politique est envisageable sur tout ce qui concerne l'immigration mise en place dans les années 1970 et quelles mesures visant à cet objectif pourraient rapidement être engagées.

Question 31774 — énergie et carburants

France · National Assembly · 7 November 2020

Mme Laurence Trastour-Isnart attire l'attention de Mme la ministre de la transition écologique sur la réglementation existante inadaptée au biocarburant avancé produit à partir de graisses de flottation. En effet, certains acteurs du monde agricole ont développé, grâce à d'importants investissements en recherche et développement et dans le respect d'une logique 100 % économie circulaire, un biocarburant composé de coproduits issus d'industries alimentaires et de stations d'épurations, qui sont peu valorisés dans le pays. La réglementation nationale, et notamment un arrêté du 29 mars 2018, précisent les prérequis pour qu'un biocarburant puisse être considéré comme du B100 et être exploité en flotte captive. Deux conditions cumulatives s'appliquent : il doit être composé de 100 % d'esters méthyliques d'acides gras et doit avoir une température limite de filtrabilité (TLF) à - 10 degrés Celsius - c'est-à-dire un biocarburant qui reste liquide et donc utilisable jusqu'à - 10 degrés Celsius et qui ne fige qu'au-dessous de cette valeur. Or cette dernière exigence ne peut être atteinte aujourd'hui que par les biocarburants produits à partir de graisses végétales. En effet, les biocarburants avancés produits à partir de graisses de flottation, en raison même de leur matière première, affichent une température limite de filtrabilité (TLF) de + 10 degrés Celsius et figent au-dessous de cette température. De ce fait, les biocarburants avancés produits à partir de graisses de flottation ne sont pas reconnus comme B100 et leur utilisation, y compris en flotte captive, reste interdite. Sensibilisée à cette problématique, la direction générale de l'énergie et du climat (DCGEC) a proposé à ces acteurs une solution provisoire, en leur accordant une dérogation pour utiliser leur biocarburant en B100 en flotte captive. Toutefois cette solution n'est pas satisfaisante dans la mesure où elle reste exceptionnelle et transitoire.
