François Bayrou invites political forces, excluding LFI and RN, to Matignon on Thursday
This Thursday, François Bayrou invites political forces, excluding LFI and RN, to Matignon before announcing his government, a delicate exercise between the demands of the different parties and the Republicans who threaten not to participate. The Prime Minister invites at 2 p.m. the presidents of the National Assembly Yaël Braun-Pivet and the Senate Gérard Larcher, as well as “the presidents of parties and groups who have had responsibility for the affairs of the country at one period or another of the Fifth Republic. Namely all except La France insoumise – which did not wish to go to Matignon for bilateral talks -, the National Rally and its ally Éric Ciotti’s UDR.
Blowing hot and cold since the appointment of the president of MoDem, the frontist party, which wanted to be received at Matignon, is raising its voice. By refusing to invite us, François Bayrou “despises the National Rally and its millions of voters”, criticized party vice-president Sébastien Chenu on X. “He should have invited the political parties who had responsibilities during the Fourth Republic instead. At least they would have had a topic of conversation,” scoffed Marine Le Pen.
As for the boss of the Ecologists, Marine Tondelier, she wants to discuss with the leadership of her party and her political partners in the New Popular Front before deciding whether or not she will go to Matignon.
