In a preview of an extended article due to run in Thursday's Le Monde, Genevoi✨s says that the pr🥃ocess to hand over the samples is on-going.

"♛A dialogue is ongoing," Genevois explained. "A negotiation is underway, it is not permanently stabilised, but I feel we've progressed... The UCI and the AFLD must work together to make the besꦕt possible controls. We want to install a sincere cooperation."
