Roure worked as a journalist for Le Temps, Le Monde and Le Figaro. He participated in the First World War (1914-1918) and was several prisoners of war. He escaped several times. During one of his imprisonments he met Charles de Gaulle, also a prisoner of war.

After the First World War Roure joined the Party of Democrat Popular (PDP). He spent much of the World War II in the concentration camp Auschwitz. His wife came to the Ravensbrück concentration camp.

In 1946 the PD entered the Union Democrat and Socialist de la Résistance (UDSR).
