(Thomas Samson, Pool via AP)PARIS Womens rights groups are protesting French President Emmanuel Macrons appointment of an interior minister who has been accused of rape and a justice minister who has criticized the #MeToo movement. The new interior minister, Gerald Darmanin, is under preliminary investigation over a rape accusation that he firmly denies. Womens rights groups are also angry over the appointment of provocative lawyer Eric Dupond-Moretti as justice minister. In his government reshuffle Monday, Macron replaced the high-profile womens rights minister behind that law, Marlene Schiappa, who will now work under Darmanin in a new role focusing on citizenship questions.
