Pressure from the left, temporization for the presidential camp
The disagreement is noted within the New Popular Front, under pressure to find a candidate for Matignon.
On Sunday, Huguette Bello, president of the Réunion region, declined the “offer” to become Prime Minister on behalf of the New Popular Front (NFP), after 48 hours of negotiations. The PS had rejected her candidacy, leading to criticism from La France Insoumise, which accused her of “blocking everything”.
On the presidential camp side, occupied by the July 14 festivities, it is also time for reflection. Emmanuel Macron, for whom “no one won” last Sunday, intends to temporize, perhaps even until the end of the Olympic Games (July 26 – August 11), in the hope of bringing together an alternative coalition.
