Emmanuel Macron spoke in the 13 Hours of France 2, Wednesday March 22. He tried to convince the French of the merits of his pension reform.

Not convinced, Marine Le Pen maintains that the only solution would have been to step back. “We had to do something else. […] There weren’t 50 possibilities, it’s the referendum or the dissolution”assured MP RN.

Talking to disgruntled French people

Second update on the demonstrations and violence that are increasing. “The crowd has no legitimacy against the people who express themselves through their elected officials”, said the President of the Republic, Tuesday, March 22. Today, he assured that he was targeting those who attack parliamentarians. A distinction rather badly perceived by the left. Emmanuel Macron also claimed that no union has offered a compromise on the reform. The government’s action will continue, it is up to Elisabeth Borne to find new support. Without a big announcement today, Emmanuel Macron mainly wanted to speak to the French, who are mostly dissatisfied.
