Pension reform: Emmanuel Macron should promulgate the law in 48 hours

“The president wants to both turn the page, but also try to appease. After months of protest, social anger will not die out immediately, hence the measured reaction on Friday evening”, reports journalist Anne Bourse, duplex at the Élysée Palace, Friday, April 14. An invitation was issued for Tuesday to trade unions and employers’ organisations, “but the intersyndicale has already made it known that it will not go”adds Anne Bourse.

Open to dialogue

According to the Élysée,it is only the beginning of a cycle of consultation, that there will be other meetings, as if to show that the executive is open to dialogue. Emmanuel Macron, who wants to reconnect with the French, should speak in the coming days“, indicates the journalist, before concluding: “He could return to the field at the end of next week. In the meantime, the head of state should promulgate the law within 48 hours, as he does for all texts, specifies his entourage.“
