Elisabeth Borne “still thinks of being useful” in the crisis that the country is going through

Shaken by social protest against the pension reform, Elisabeth Borne reaffirmed, in an interview with Parisian published on Saturday April 8, her legitimacy as Prime Minister. “In a suspended period like this, it’s important to keep your nerves”, commented again the tenant of Matignon.

She returned to her political future after the grueling sequence of pension reform and assured not to be on an ejection seat. “I am at my task. Not to respond to a career plan, I have passed the age. But because I still think I can be useful in the crisis that our country is going through”, said Elisabeth Borne.

“Visibility over the coming months”

“With the President of the Republic, we agreed that we would give ourselves visibility over the coming months”, she still assured.

Elisabeth Borne’s appeal not to “rush things” with the unions on Friday had cast doubt on her relationship with Emmanuel Macron, although she was quick to insist on her perfect “alignment” on the head of state. The government and the unions are all waiting on Friday April 14 for the crucial decision of the Constitutional Council on the conformity of the pension reform. It will be preceded the day before by a 12th day of mobilization of the unions.
