Macron Vows to Complete Presidential Term Despite Political Turmoil

PARIS, – French President Emmanuel Macron vowed on December 5 to serve out the remainder of his five-year term, despite the political upheaval following the recent no-confidence vote that ousted Prime Minister Michel Barnier. In a televised speech, Macron reaffirmed his commitment to finish his mandate, which is set to end in 2027, and announced plans to appoint a new prime minister in the coming days.

The new premier will be tasked with forming a broad-based government that represents all political forces aligned against the far-right and left-wing factions that helped topple Barnier’s government. Macron emphasized that the primary goal of the far-right and far-left lawmakers was to provoke an early presidential election, a scenario he rejected.

The political crisis has left France in a state of uncertainty, with the National Assembly divided among three main factions: Macron’s weakened centrist bloc, a left-wing alliance, and Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Rally, which has emerged as the largest party in Parliament.

In his speech, Macron stated that the new government’s priority would be to pass the national Budget, with a special law set to be submitted to Parliament before mid-December. However, the challenges of political gridlock remain, as the opposition parties have repeatedly blocked efforts to advance key legislation.

“We have 30 months left of the mandate you have given me,” Macron said, stressing that this period would be focused on strengthening and reforming France.
