LIVE: Emmanuel Macron Holds Press Conference Kicks off Poll Campaign | French Snap Elections | France News Live | CNBC TV18 The French president, Emmanuel Macron, will be holding a press conference this morning, after a tumultuous few days in French politics. The far-right National Rally won the European election in France by a wide margin, prompting Macron to call a snap legislative election. The move then led politicians across the spectrum to scramble to form new alliances and prepare for the two-round vote, scheduled for 30 June and 7 July. Yesterday, the leader of France’s mainstream right Republicans, Éric Ciotti, said he would back an alliance with the far right in the elections, shocking some political figures both inside and outside his party. His future in the party is now unclear. #emmanuelmacron #macron #FranceNews #FranceElections #FranceElections2024 #LiveNews #WorldNews #cnbctv18 n18oc_world
