Attempts to restore calm have been thwarted by Carlos Ghosn's dramatic flight from Japanese justice

Paris — Renault chair Jean-Dominique Senard said on Thursday there was a “real desire” at the helm of the carmaker's alliance with Nissan to make it a success, seeking to dispel suggestions the two decade partnership might be on the rocks.

Attempts to restore calm have recently been thwarted by Ghosn's dramatic flight from Japanese justice and a series of no-holds-barred allegations he has made from his refuge in Lebanon, including that he was the victim of a plot to oust him and that the alliance is now a “masquerade”. “We have a board overseeing the alliance which is made up of people who are all extremely in favour of the alliance,” Senard told a news conference, defending the changes he had made since joining Renault after Ghosn's arrest.

Senard, who used to run tyre maker Michelin, has become the de facto senior figure in the partnership, though without the commander-in-chief aura Ghosn had, which had helped hold the alliance together.
