The French president seems unwilling to allow a government led by a far-left leader. And a recent meeting with far-right leader Marine Le Pen suggests a radical shift.

“Macron did not like the election results,” which the newly-formed NFP surprisingly won, says Yigit.
After Macron publicly rejected Melenchon’s presence in any government, the leftist leader and his allies have called for protests against the French president. But the French analyst also thinks that the French president’s “space for maneuver is short”, suggesting that Macron employs tactics rather than a solid strategy to defeat his enemies., a former centre-left prime minister under ex-president Francois Hollande, who left the Socialist Party to protest its alliance with Melenchon’s LFI in 2022. Many see Cazeneuve as a front-runner for the prime minister post, having the potential to divide the leftist bloc.
“But all of that is very uncertain. The more the political leaders think of the next presidential election and, the more they don’t want to be compromised with Macron, already seen as a lame duck. The situation looks like a stalemate,” says Mongrenier.
