French President Emmanuel Macron ruled out naming a prime minister from the leftist New Popular Front alliance and will instead start a new round of consultations on Tuesday with parties to try to form a new government, Macron's office said.
If the NFP doesn’t break up, then that doesn’t sound like a path forward. From what I’ve heard, French media, Macron, and his party have been painting LFI to be worse than RN for some reason that I can’t understand.
Probably he’ll blame the NFP for not wanting to break up with LFI and say they’re at fault for hindering a coalition. I bet that’s his next move.
That, or he’s still fantasising that he can controle the situation and win through “political wits” and authority.
I’m speculating, but I feel like if his party doesn’t rule, Macron will completely lose controle over it. So he’s doing absolutely everything he can for that to not happen. But he will have to face reality at some point. Unfortunately the 5th Republic of France doesn’t encourage him to be reasonable.
