Elisabeth Borne will take stock of several reforms “in the first 15 days of July”, announces Emmanuel Macron

Elisabeth Borne will present or provide an update on several reforms “in the first fifteen days of July”, announced Emmanuel Macron in an interview with the newspaper ProvenceMonday, June 26. “She has my confidence since she is at the head of the government”, he added, seeming to cut short the rumors of an imminent replacement of the Prime Minister. During this intervention, Elisabeth Borne will reveal “the new public finance strategy, progress on immigration and ecological planning”said the Head of State, who begins a three-day visit to Marseille on Monday.

“The Prime Minister is implementing the policy to which I have been committed to the French for more than a year. We have a record of which we have nothing to be ashamed of”again judged Emmanuel Macron, citing the reforms of unemployment insurance, vocational high schools or pensions, as well as the programming law for the Ministry of the Interior. “For more than a year, Elisabeth Borne has worked to implement all of this in a determined, courageous manner at the head of a committed government with a relative majority but which has been able to build alliances.”

Fueled behind the scenes by the tenors of the majority, rumors of a reshuffle and replacement of the Prime Minister have intensified in recent weeks. Some consider these changes necessary to breathe new life into Emmanuel Macron’s second five-year term, after the painful pension reform. In April, the president had given 100 days to Elisabeth Borne to relaunch the action of his government. This period must end on July 14.
