In a recent speech, French President Emmanuel Macron acknowledged that his choice for early parliamentary elections led to increased political instability.
Macron stated that the decision resulted in a hung parliament, significantly shifting power to far-right lawmakers and diluting his authority.
He expressed that the dissolution caused more divisions than resolutions in the National Assembly, marking a rare moment of contrition from him.
Despite insisting on the necessity of the early elections, Macron's government has faced challenges, including failing to pass a budget for 2025.
He also mentioned the potential use of referendums for significant decisions, emphasizing the need for France to look ahead towards 2050.
