The Council of Ministers, scheduled for Wednesday January 3, will not take place, Franceinfo learned on Sunday December 31 from the President of the Republic’s entourage.

Emmanuel Macron’s entourage, however, does not wish to give the reason for this cancellation. The next Council of Ministers will therefore take place on Wednesday January 10.

Sunday, during his wishes to the French, the President of the Republic thanked “Especially” the head of government and her ministers for their action in this year 2023, marked in particular by the adoption of the pension reform and the immigration law, while rumors of a reshuffle, or even a change at Matignon, are circulating.

During his traditional televised New Year’s Eve address, the head of state did not specify the contours of the mysterious “meeting with the Nation” announced for January, nor did he mention a possible government reshuffle that many in the majority expect, even hope, for mid-January.
