Moscow believes it is too early to talk about a possible resignation of French President Emmanuel Macron, as parliamentary elections in France have not yet been held, the spokesman for the Russian presidency said Dmitry Peskov.

“I don’t think it’s right to answer such questions because, first of all, elections haven’t been held yet [στη Γαλλία]”, he said, when asked about the possibility of Macron resigning. “First, we have to see the election results and only then try to analyze the situation. At this point, we think it’s still too early.”

Peskov noted that Macron’s Renaissance Party is losing popularity, which, in his words, is a sign that the world he is not happy. “We are seeing certain trends… Yes, Macron’s party won half the votes from the right-wing alliance [στις εκλογές για το Ευρωπαϊκό Κοινοβούλιο]. Macron’s party is rapidly losing seats, which means the French are disapproving of something,” the Russian official said, according to TASS.

Europe 1 radio station reported earlier, citing a source, that Macron he is thinking of resigning in case the right wins the country’s parliamentary elections. Eliseh’s sources denied the news.

On June 9, Macron announced his decision to dissolve the National Assembly and call early parliamentary elections following the landslide defeat of the Presidential Renaissance Party in the European Parliament elections.

The first round of early parliamentary elections will be held on June 30, and the second round – on July 7. The last time the Parliament was dissolved it was in 1997 by the then president Jacques Chirac.
