What cut short the rumors of an imminent replacement of the head of government? Elisabeth Borne will present or take stock of several reforms “in the first fifteen days of July”, Emmanuel Macron announced on Monday in an interview with the newspaper Provence. “She has my confidence since she is at the head of the government,” he added.

“We will have in the first fortnight of July to present the new public finance strategy, the progress on immigration and ecological planning and Élisabeth Borne will do it”, said the head of state to La Provence, while he begins a three-day visit to Marseille on Monday, where in 2021 he launched a vast plan for the rehabilitation and development of the city.

Fueled behind the scenes by the tenors of the majority, rumors of a reshuffle and replacement of the Prime Minister have intensified in recent weeks. Some consider these changes necessary to breathe new life into Emmanuel Macron’s second five-year term after the painful pension reform.

“What matters to me is not to last, it is to do”

“The Prime Minister is implementing the policy to which I have been committed to the French for over a year. We have a record of which we have nothing to be ashamed of, ”explains Emmanuel Macron, citing the reforms of unemployment insurance, vocational high schools or pensions, as well as the programming law for the Ministry of the Interior or even those aimed at accelerating the development of renewable or nuclear energies.

“For more than a year, Élisabeth Borne has worked to implement all of this in a determined, courageous manner at the head of a committed government with a relative majority but which has been able to build alliances,” he said. . “I gave an intensification program, the hundred days, which she is implementing,” he added.

In April, Emmanuel Macron gave Elisabeth Borne 100 days to relaunch the action of his government. This period must end on July 14.

In this interview, the head of state also brushes aside the controversy sparked by one of his relatives, Richard Ferrand, who seemed to want him to serve a third term.

“I am working day and night to ensure that the mandate that the French have entrusted to me is useful for the country and for our compatriots. If I succeed, that will suffice for my happiness and my ambition. What matters to me is not to last, it is to do”.
