'He's chosen paralysis', says French far-right leader after meeting with Macron • FRANCE 24

well France 24's Clovis Cali is covering today's political action from the El palace in Paris I believe that we have him now Clovis we just heard from Marine Leen there before it sounds like the national rally are planning to make life difficult for Emanuel macron absolutely the national rally Marin Len and Jord Jordan badela were here minutes ago and made it very clear they refused to back a leftwing government they refus to see a leftwing prime minister appointed by President maon bear in mind they have 126 MPS in Parliament so they have significant weight and they say uh the situation the paralysis the chaos as they call it has been caused by president mcon he's the one to blame for it and therefore one solution would be a referendum in other words they won the French prime minister uh the French President out of course that's very unlikely uh for us to see referendum here in France but the um far right party the national rally also said that there's a need to fight immigration to be tougher on immigration and security and therefore a leftwing government would be unacceptable for them and for their voters and that's why they oppose that it is making life difficult for French president Emanuel macron who knows he needs to break the deadlock bring some much needed Clarity to French politics with the people wanting of course a new prime minister when uh Clover might we know who mron is planning to name for prime minister well it's very difficult to know because the Eliz keeps saying it all depends on the results of these uh talks on the content whether or not there's a consensus over a name if a coalition government is formed and if it's backed by um various political parties because no political party here in France holds an outright majority in Parliament and that's why you need negotiations alliances between parties like the leftwing and the centuries block of President macron opponents of course will they uh come together for this moment reach a consensus on a name it's very difficult there were some sources saying that President mcon might talk tonight maybe tomorrow he will only talk if he really has a solution to offer to give to the French people a name much needed if we look at the schedule of the French President well it's pretty busy this week Wednesday par Olympics starting here in France and then on Thursday he's off to Serbia for a visit so of course he's urged to find a solution and a name very quickly all right Clovis Cali covering the political action at the El Palace of forest we'll have more from him later no doubt
