On the eve of a crucial cabinet meeting, Emmanuel Macron is meeting with the leaders of the parties in the presidential coalition at the Élysée Palace on Monday, July 15, to discuss the aftermath of the legislative elections. This meeting, scheduled for midday, comes as the President of the Republic prepares to accept the resignation of Prime Minister Gabriel Attal.
Meeting at the Élysée
Emmanuel Macron has summoned the leaders of the parties and the presidents of the parliamentary groups in his camp for a lunch at the Élysée Palace. Among those present will be Gabriel Attal , the current Prime Minister and president of the Renaissance group in the National Assembly. The meeting aims to clarify the political situation following the recent legislative elections.
Resignation of Gabriel Attal
According to sources close to the president, Emmanuel Macron intends to accept the resignation of Gabriel Attal after the Council of Ministers, scheduled for Tuesday at 11:30 a.m. at the Élysée Palace. Although the resigning government will remain in place to manage “current affairs”, the ministers elected as deputies will be able to continue to vote in the National Assembly. This measure prevents the Assembly from overthrowing the government team in place.
Context and challenges
The current political context is marked by the need to reorganize the government and define a new road map after the legislative elections. This Monday's meeting constitutes an important step in Emmanuel Macron's strategy to strengthen the cohesion of his camp and prepare the next legislative stages.
Discussions between the president and party leaders should help clarify positions and determine future priorities. This moment of consultation aims to ensure a smooth transition and maintain governmental stability in a period of political change.
PROSPECTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS
Pending the effective resignation of Gabriel Attal and the formation of a new government, Tuesday's Council of Ministers will be a key moment to formalize these changes. The government's ability to manage current affairs and maintain a parliamentary majority will be decisive for the months to come.
Emmanuel Macron continues to navigate a complex political landscape, with important issues for the future of his mandate. This Monday's meeting is a crucial step in this dynamic, aimed at consolidating the presidential camp and preparing future actions.
