Debré, Michel (b. 15 Jan. 1912, d. 2 Aug. 1996). Prime Minister of France 1959–62 Part of de
Gaulle's Free French Cabinet during World War II, he was a Senator from 1948–58 and subsequently a Deputy in the National Assembly. He supported de
Gaulle's return to power in 1958, confident that he would be able to restore French rule in Algeria by winning the
Algerian War of Independence. Despite de
Gaulle's subsequent termination of French rule in Algeria, he remained one of his faithful followers. As Minister of Justice in 1958 he was in charge of preparing the Constitution of the Fifth Republic. As its first Prime Minister, he also had an important role in the negotiations of the
Évian Agreements. Thereafter, he was Minister of Economics and Finance (1966–8), of Foreign Affairs (1968–9), and of Defence (1969–73). He ran unsuccessfully against the neo-Gaullist J.
Chirac to become the right wing's main contender in the 1981 presidential elections.
