There was no further impediment to de Gaulle leaving. As for the CNR, it met in conditions of ultra-secrecy on 27 May in a flat in the Rue du Four on the Paris Left Bank. Under the chairmanship of Jean Moulin, eight Resistance leaders and the representatives of eight political parties supported a motion calling for a provisional government to be established under the leadership of de Gaulle. By the time the news reached London on 4 June, de Gaulle was already in Algiers.
