French President Emmanuel Macron resists calls to resign and vows to name a new prime minister in days

CNN  

CNN — Embattled French President Emmanuel Macron said he hoped to appoint a new prime minister in the coming days, in a combative televised address that will do little to ease a deepening political crisis. “The extreme right and the extreme left united together in an anti-Republican front,” Macron said of the Wednesday vote against Barnier that opened up a vacuum in French politics and jeopardized attempts to pass a contentious budget. “Let’s be honest, they think about one thing: the presidential election,” Macron said of Le Pen’s party, claiming their “cynical” approach had brought “a sense of chaos” to the country. “From today, it’s new era,” Macron told the French public, saying the National Assembly “has the duty to do what it was elected for” and act “in the service of the French people.” But there is little evidence that the new era will be any smoother for Macron than the last.
