In 1934, 346 Breton communes adopt the wish of Ar Brezhoneg er Skol proposed by Yann Fouéré, in favor of the teaching of the Breton one.

It takes after Olier Mordrel, the direction of the ex Bulletin of the national minorities of France , become Peuples and Frontières, where the claims of the Breton separatists and the principal European national minorities are presented. Hermann Bickler, charged with the heading on the Alsace, is as much openly related to the Nazism than Mordrel, and the majority of collaborators of the newspaper. In the first number of Peuples and Frontières (January 1st 1937, p. 14-16), in a letter in connection with the Heroic Village fair , the Fleming J. Demeerseman attacks the Jewish body Marianne , by declaring It will not be enough to plead like excuses that, perhaps in Germany, cinema industry is not yet completely released from the Jewish influence. Yann Fouéré explains why it wrote many articles under various pseudonyms when had to be replaced a failing collaborator.

Second world war

He is the founder and director of the Brest-native daily newspaper Brittany (the March 21st 1941 creates) of 1941 with 1945 appearing under the Occupation and developing a regionalistic point of view opposed to the separatism of the Breton national Parti, and not disputing the legitimacy of Vichy, not more than he had not disputed that of IIIe République. This marked daily newspaper of collaborationnism, where were published the texts anti-semites among more the violent ones ever written in Breton language (in the chronicle Lan Hag Herve, directed by Xavier de Langlais, was financed by the industrialist Jacques Guillemot, and some industrialists quimpérois. He affirms in the first number of this newspaper: “There is no on our premises hatred of France. Too many tests, too many jointly lived joy and days of mourning forged our union so that, in spite of momentary disagreements or legitimate rancours, we thought of breaking it. One can be good Breton without at the same time neglecting to be good French”.

Appointed sub-prefect of Morlaix in 1940, returned less than one month afterwards by the mode of Vichy, direct political of the Dispatch of Brest (April 1942 -45). Member, then general secretary of the Advisory committee of Brittany (CCB) near the regional prefect (1942-44). He is a senior official of the French State supervised for his contrary opinions with the unit of France. It was shown to incarnate the policy of Collaboration, not ceasing being pressed on the occupant Nazi to try to obtain Vichy government a particular status for the Brittany. It is defended while pointing out that it did nothing but use in that the same tactics as under the IIIe République or with respect to the allies.

He on this subject declares in his book the prohibited Fatherland (p. 238): “I did not have more sympathy to the Vichy government than I had not had for the governments which had preceded them. They were all for me of simple facts of which it was necessary to hold account in my action. The presence of the Germans appeared only another mishap to me”.

Escape

With the Release, Yann Fouéré is stopped the August 10th 1944. He flees with the Wales (where he is accommodated by Gwynfor Evans) and various Welsh nationalists.

Judged by contumacy, he is condemned on March 28th 1946 to the forced labors with perpetuity and national degradation.

In “the house of Connemara” (p. 273) published in Coop Breizh in 1995, Yann Fouéré explains how it mounted a die of false passports to allow the Breton militants and in particular with the members of the Breton militia under uniform S (Bezen Perrot) to flee in Ireland where it is constrained itself to take refuge in 1948, following the protests against its attitude at the time of the investigation of the Welsh militants in Brittany.

Since 1947, he writes, “the die of the truth-false passports was perfectly at the point”.

It is him which is given the responsability to address a false passport to Olier Mordrel so that the latter can flee in Argentina.

In 1948, it settles in Dublin in the same house as Jacques de Quelen, Yann Goulet, condemned to death in absentia to the Release, and Alphonse Boulc' H, ex-member of Bezen Perrot. They are in relation to Raymond Delaporte and numerous other collaborator Breton militants of the Nazis in Brittany. One is thus in right to relativize the appearance of " moderation " posted by Yann Fouéré which continues the same action with more the extremists of the militants. " For Yann Narrow part, he in " writes eulogistically; The House of Connemara " (p. 92) the French, whatever they are besides, are the enemy; he considers them and will always regard them as tels". It is clear that the FAS will be for them the means of continuing the combat.

In 1954, Fouéré launches with old of Bezen Perrot, Alan Heusaff, the bulletin of press Breton News whose foundation coincides with the foundation of the Celtic League (1960).

Following a change of competence of the jurisdictions, it returns to France, fact call of its judgment after having taken for lawyer Me Isorni, lawyer of Pétain, and is discharged in 1955.

Federalism

Yann Fouéré remained in relation to Joseph Martray who was under the Occupation his “assistant most direct of the Directorate of Political Affairs of his newspapers” (" The House of Connemara "). After its payment, it takes again its political activities in Brittany.

Its expressed goal is “to dismantle the French State”: “The interest of Brittany and the Breton people was always to dismantle this fortress. I had tried to do it before the war, just as during the Occupation because Vichy did nothing but continue Paris with less means. It did not remain about it less than in 1956, it was still within the framework of the French State that the combat of emancipation was to continue. This framework was antiquated and exceeded but there always existed. Only the national combat of our people were able to break it: with the assistance if possible and in company of all those which, in Europe, carried out similar combat. Martray also thought it, and those which it animated. It had, thanks to the support of the French movement the Federation, which directed André Voisin, taken again the combat It had at the same time endeavoured to widen the combat while creating in 1949 the federalistic Union of the European ethnic communities. They was well there the two aspects, the two faces of the combat which it was jointly necessary to take again and continue. (" The house of Connemara " , p. 292).

It was one of the organizers and financial Mouvement for the organization of Brittany (MOB), created in 1957, with Ronan Goarant and Yann Poupinot, and of its newspaper the Future of Brittany . This organization which claimed to gather all the political sensibilities said to fight for the Fédéralisme and the European Unité. Proclaiming Apolitical, though clearly related to the most extreme right-hand side, it popularizes the concept of colonial exploitation of Brittany by France whereas the movement of emancipation of the colonized people develops in Africa and Asia. It is thus well the MOB, and not its scission the Breton democratic Union (UDB), which launches the slogan “Brittany = colony”. In 1961, with Alan Heusaff, old of Bezen Perrot (Breton militiamans under uniform Nazi), and with Gwynfor Evans and J.E. Jones, respectively president and general secretary of the Plaid Cymru , left nationalist, it bases on the Ile of Rhos to the Wales, the Celtic League (Celtic League), movement in which the various nationalist parties of the Celtic areas were represented.

In the years 1970, it animated the party rear Strollad Vro . In 1975, it is stopped for the attacks of FLB-ARB. It is released in December 1976. The experiment of its detention will be reported in its book In prison for FAS the published in the New Latin editions. He is today honorary president of the party Parti for the organization free Brittany (POBL), whose the Future of Brittany became the body of expression.
