France has re-entered the presidential election, which, more or less as expected, was won by Emanuel Macron. pre-election period in the run-up to the June parliamentary elections, which will decide whether the re-elected president will rule for the next five years on his own or be forced into some kind of political cohabitation, to which all the presidents of the fifth French Republic for two terms . However, there is optimism in the leadership of the Presidential Palace based on the argument that, when the parliamentary elections take place shortly after the presidential ones, they are usually won by the party of the elected president who goes down in the election battle with the air of the winner.
On the other hand, consultations are intensifying within the opposition for the creation of alliances that will allow Le Pen and Melanson to claim a kind of revenge with reasonable hopes, but also for the smaller parties not to disappear from the political map of France.
Achieving alliances on the far right is extremely problematic, with Zemour making a “marriage proposal” to Le Pen at the same time questioning her ability to win elections and Le Pen knowing that if Zemour does not work with her, his party may dissolved in the syntheses, which is in its long-term interest. On the left side of the French political map, Jean-Luc Melanson consults with all those who want to work with him without questioning his primacy, something that has already begun to provoke reactions, mainly in the field of ecologists, but also of the crushed Socialists. Melanson’s largely unsubstantiated claim that Macron is the most “badly elected” president in French history has annoyed many, with the first being the Ecological Candidate Yannick Zando, who has not hidden his opposition to the Melanson’s views on Europe.
For now, however, everyone is waiting for the new prime minister and the composition of the new government to be announced by Macron, most likely next week. Names are coming and going for the position of prime minister, with Macron having announced before the elections that, whoever or whoever he is, he will deal primarily with the environmental issue. This prime minister will definitely remain until the parliamentary elections in June. From there, everything will depend on the outcome of the parliamentary elections, with Macron not ruling out even Melanson for the post of prime minister, if of course the French voters want that.
