If France is focused on the Paris Olympics, Emmanuel Macron is too… The head of state has thus multiplied his presence with the athletes in recent days, as if to try to turn the page on the dissolution. But what about his resigned government still in place?
With a blue-white-red flag drawn on his cheek, Gabriel Attal seeks to show himself as close as possible to the sports news alongside the athletes. Swimming, fencing… Many videos are published on social networks, as if to remind us that he remains Prime Minister, albeit resigned. Gabriel Attal even offers himself crowd baths with spectators at the foot of the stands.
Other ministers on deck: those in charge of the smooth running of the Olympic Games, with in the foreground, Gérald Darmanin at the Interior or Amélie Oudéa-Castéra at Sports. A way of illustrating the management of current affairs until the appointment of a next government, not before mid-August. This meeting of the president which sows trouble.
And even if the other ministers can go on vacation, the instructions are clear: choose a destination compatible with their responsibilities. Some choose to refine the next crucial deadlines for the presidential camp. Like the Minister of Economy, Bruno Le Maire, who remains at Bercy to prepare the next budget.
