A resignation? “Political fiction”
While the deputies of the New Popular Front are calling for the resignation of Emmanuel Macron, the main person concerned put an end to this possibility on the sidelines of his trip to Saudi Arabia. It’s “political fiction”, he dismissed. “It doesn’t make sense”, “it’s frankly not up to the standard of saying these things”, he also declared. A resignation therefore seems far from being on the agenda.
