President Emmanuel Macron isn't backing down! 💪 Facing political chaos, he promises to appoint a new prime minister in the coming days to steer France back on track.
In a bold address to the nation, Macron dismissed calls for his resignation after Prime Minister Michel Barnier's government was toppled in a historic no-confidence vote. 😱 It's the first time in over 60 years that a French government has been ousted this way!
\"I will appoint a prime minister in the coming days,\" Macron declared, emphasizing that the new leader will form a \"government of general interest\" with a top priority of passing a budget. 💼💶
He didn't hold back on criticism either! Macron accused the far right and hard left of creating an \"anti-republican front\" to bring down the government just before the holidays. 🎄
Despite polls showing that over half of the French population want him to step down (ouch! 😬), Macron remains steadfast. \"The mandate that you gave to me democratically is a five-year mandate and I will exercise it fully, right up to the end,\" he insisted. 🗳️✨
Meanwhile, speculation is swirling about who the new prime minister will be. Will it be loyalist Defense Minister Sebastien Lecornu? Centrist ally Francois Bayrou? Or perhaps former premier Bernard Cazeneuve? 🤔 Stay tuned!
With more than two years left in his term, Macron is gearing up for what he calls \"30 months of useful action for the country.\" Let's see how this political drama unfolds! 🎬🇫🇷
