Emmanuel Macron faced with the delicate equation of the reshuffle

While the upcoming government reshuffle is expected, the President of the Republic Emmanuel Macron has chosen to give himself time. The general policy statement by Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne has been postponed from Tuesday July 5 to Wednesday July 6. It remains to be seen whether the new government, which must take into account the new balance of power in the National Assembly, will have emerged by then.

“In the majority, some plead to delay the announcement of the new government team“to get her to intervene after Elisabeth Borne’s declaration, explains journalist Catherine Demangeat. The equation should prove to be all the more delicate since, if the government is supposed to respect parity, four women members of the government have been beaten in the legislative elections.Amélie de Montchalin and Brigitte Bourguignon are expected to leave the government.Officially, four ministerial posts are therefore to be filled.
