US Secretary of State Unhappy Over France's Statement to Recognize the Palestinian State
Emmanuel Macron’s government is currently facing two no-confidence motions
French President Emmanuel Macron has strongly rejected calls from his political opponents to resign. He says he has no intention of resigning before the end of his second and final presidential term (2027).
Emmanuel Macron’s government is currently facing two no-confidence motions, which could potentially bring down the government by the end of the week. However, President Macron accused his opponents of destabilizing the country and said he favors continuity and stability.
The French president is currently attending a meeting on the Gaza ceasefire in the Egyptian city of Sharm el-Sheikh. He said the president’s real mandate is: “To serve, to serve, to serve.”
It should be noted that Macron recently reappointed Sebastien Lacourneau as prime minister, who resigned a few days ago. The new cabinet held its first meeting today and is preparing to present a new budget by Wednesday.
On the other hand, the left-wing party France Unbound and the right-wing party National Rally have submitted no-confidence motions. If Prime Minister Lacorno fails to secure a majority on October 16, the government could face a serious political crisis.
France is currently the eurozone’s largest deficit country, and President Macron is under pressure to take effective measures to cut spending and reduce the budget deficit.
