Those young women are going to have to be really well accompanied to be able to repair themselves.
And they have to be recognized as victims.
I was lucky to be recognized as a victim straight away.
But that's not the case for all the victims that are currently trying to fight against it.
How do you restore yourself after that?
When you almost, in fact, see that you're the only one who holds a shame.
I think that justice has got to be more rigorous.
Because after all, justice is there to be able to name the crimes and to be able to support the suffering of these victims.
And these acts mustn't remain unpunished, because otherwise it's far too easy.
You could just rape and go home as if nothing had happened.
So society's got to evolve, justice has got to be more rigorous, and the sentences have got to also be exemplary.
Of course, this book has transformed my life because I didn't think it would have such success, but I think it's for a good cause and I'll always be able to talk to people if there were a need to give them strength, if they needed to meet me.
I don't know if I changed the world, but if I got there, it's also because I was supported.
All these women gave me an enormous amount of strength and women who wrote to me and I've got thousands of letters.
Of course, I couldn't answer all of them, but I'd just like to say to them, thank you for everything you've done for me and look around you.
You're not the only ones.
You're not on your own.
No, thank you.
Well, our love affair began.
We were 19 years old.
