Search for a new Prime Minister: Xavier Bertrand at the center of discussions
(Franceinfo)
While Emmanuel Macron is now testing the Xavier Bertrand option at Matignon, the National Rally and Éric Ciotti have already brandished the threat of a motion of censure.
The suspense continues, Emmanuel Macron has still not appointed a Prime Minister this Tuesday, September 3rd… And this is felt by many French people. For several weeks, it has been a waltz of rumors with each day a new name for a possible new head of government.
Yesterday, Monday, September 2, the Head of State received Bernard Cazeneuve (PS) and Xavier Bertrand (LR), two former ministers with very political profiles. The former LR deputy is said to be the president’s preference. Another scenario: a profile from civil society at Matignon like Thierry Beaudet, president of the Economic, Social and Environmental Council mentioned on Monday, September 2. The opposition, for its part, displayed its skepticism.
