Macron Meets Political Leaders in Search for New Prime Minister
Paris, France – 15th March 2023
In a sudden turn of events, French President Emmanuel Macron has convened an emergency meeting with various political leaders to discuss the formation of a new government and the appointment of a Prime Minister.
According to sources close to the Elysée Palace, the meeting was called after Macron’s current Prime Minister, Édouard Philippe, resigned on Monday, citing disagreements over economic policy.
The meeting, which took place at the Élysée Palace, was attended by several prominent French politicians, including:
- Jean Castex, the former Prime Minister of France
- Xavier Bertrand, the leader of the Republicans party
- Christian Jacob, the leader of the Democrats party
- Valérie Pécresse, the President of the Île-de-France region
- Bruno Le Maire, the Minister of the Economy
Macron is said to be considering several candidates for the position of Prime Minister, including some of the attendees at the meeting. The President is reportedly looking for someone who can help him implement his vision for the country, which includes reducing unemployment and increasing economic growth.
Reactions from Political Parties
The meeting has sparked intense speculation about the future of French politics, with many parties already weighing in on the situation.
- La République En Marche! (LREM), Macron’s own party, has pledged its support for the President’s efforts to find a new Prime Minister.
- The National Rally, a far-right party, has called for Macron to dissolve the National Assembly and hold early elections.
- The Socialist Party, a left-wing party, has criticized Macron’s handling of the situation, saying that he is trying to "impose his own candidates" on the country.
What’s Next?
The meeting is just the latest development in a series of dramatic events that have shaken the French political landscape. With the country’s economy still recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, Macron will need to move quickly to appoint a new Prime Minister and implement his economic reforms.
