ai generated text

French President Emmanuel Macron has been struggling to form a government after the July elections, which resulted in a hung parliament. Macron has been holding talks with party leaders to break the deadlock, but so far, no agreement has been reached. The left opposition has demanded power, while the hard right has vowed to block them. Macron has ruled out naming a left-wing government, despite the left coalition holding the most seats in parliament. The president has also rejected right-wing claims to govern, after talks with far-right leader Marine Le Pen. Macron's decision to refuse a left-wing prime minister has been met with anger and threats of impeachment from some quarters.

    1. He refuses to appoint Lucie Castets as prime minister. Under these conditions, the motion of impeachment will be presented by LFI MPs. Any proposal for a prime minister other than Lucie Castets will be subject to a motion of censure.
    1. The popular and political response must be swift and firm.
    1. My responsibility is that the country is not blocked nor weakened.
    2. In view of the opinions expressed by the political leaders consulted, the institutional stability of our country means that this option should not be pursued.
    3. At this unprecedented time in the Fifth Republic, when the expectations of the French people are high, the head of state calls on all political leaders to rise to the occasion by demonstrating a spirit of responsibility.
    4. Such a government would immediately have a majority of more than 350 MPs against it, effectively preventing it from acting.
    5. My responsibility is to ensure that the country is neither blocked nor weakened.
