Positions Daucourt has made several strong statements (e.g. on the need to vote even if the most suitable available candidate's programme is not close to Christian principles, and criticising the bishop of Recife following excommunications pronounced after a child-mother underwent an abortion). He is close to the Greek orthodox hierarchy at the Phanar in Turkey and together with Cardinal Barbarin of Lyons spent the day of 13 April 2004 (the seventh centenary of the Fourth Crusade taking of Constantinople) in the company of Patriarch Bartholomew there.
