À propos de cet audio
French President Emmanuel Macron finds himself at the center of a rapidly evolving political crisis as he races against a self-imposed deadline to name a new prime minister. According to France 24 and Euronews, the Elysee Palace announced earlier this week that Macron would appoint a new prime minister within 48 hours of Wednesday evening, setting a Friday deadline to resolve the political turmoil gripping France.
The drama intensified following the resignation of Sebastien Lecornu, who ended the shortest premiership in modern French history after just 27 days in office. Lecornu, who described himself as a monk-soldier committed to discipline rather than ambition, admitted his mission was not completely successful despite trying everything. His resignation came after conducting extensive negotiations with various political parties, though he ruled out returning to the role himself.
Adding to the pressure, some of Macron's former allies, including ex-prime minister Edouard Philippe, have called on the president to step down after the 2026 budget passage. However, Lecornu firmly rejected this idea, citing global instability and France's crucial diplomatic role as reasons to maintain stability at the top.
The political crisis extends beyond leadership appointments. Lecornu confirmed that a new budget bill will be submitted Monday, though he admitted it won't be perfect and will require substantial debate. The contentious pension reform that sparked massive protests remains a source of parliamentary blockage, with Lecornu warning that abandoning it would cost at least three billion euros by 2027.
Interestingly, Lecornu claimed that 210 MPs want a platform of stability, potentially giving Macron a foundation to build upon. He dismissed speculation about new parliamentary elections, stating an absolute majority in the National Assembly opposes dissolution.
As Macron weighs his options, France watches closely to see who will emerge as the next prime minister and whether this appointment can bring much-needed stability to the government. The coming days will prove critical for Macron's presidency and France's political future.
