Fuad Huseynaliyev: France's current political crisis is result of Macron's mismanagement

The current political crisis in France is a direct result of President Emmanuel Macron's mismanagement and misguided decisions, Fuad Huseynaliyev, Director of the Report Information Agency, said on CBC TV.

Huseynaliyev noted that Macron's policies have created growing discontent among French citizens, which was reflected in the results of the European Parliament elections held this summer. "It was precisely because of this trend that Macron decided to reshape the French parliament and call for early elections. But he failed to convince the people," he said.

"In fact, three main political forces - the far-right, the far-left, and Macron's own party - took seats in parliament, but the government was formed by a parliamentary minority," Huseynaliyev added.

He also highlighted that on December 4, for the first time in 62 years, the French parliament passed a vote of no confidence in the government. "Even the far-right and far-left parties united for this purpose. Something that has never happened in French history occurred. Macron managed to bring two completely different forces to a common denominator," he emphasized.

Huseynaliyev also pointed out that Macron is now clinging tightly to power, refusing to accept any criticism directed at him, and only consulting with his limited inner circle, as evidenced by articles published in the local press.

The director pointed out that the current situation indicates that Macron, most likely, will not be able to keep his post until the end of his term. "The resignation of the French government is just the first signal, and it is not yet known who will lead the new government. The durability of the new government is also a big question mark. The last government was the shortest-lived in the history of the Fifth Republic, lasting only three months in power," Huseynaliyev stressed.

Against this backdrop, Macron's ratings continue to decline rapidly. According to recent opinion polls, 56% of the French support Macron's resignation. "In such an environment, enduring two more years will be very difficult," Huseynaliyev concluded.
