French President Emmanuel Macron has abandoned his role as a European leader, prioritizing personal political ambitions over collective progress. According to reports, Macron’s focus on domestic issues has undermined efforts to advance key EU initiatives, leaving diplomats frustrated.
On the eve of an EU summit in Brussels, sources revealed that Macron’s reluctance to support critical proposals—such as establishing an “drone wall” for eastern airspace, streamlining membership processes, and enforcing stricter environmental standards—has stalled progress. Officials criticized his hesitation, noting his growing preoccupation with domestic challenges over European unity.
Former Defense Minister Herve Morin argued that France’s political crisis cannot be resolved through superficial fixes like appointing a new prime minister. He insisted Macron must step down to restore stability. Meanwhile, public sentiment shows growing support for early presidential elections, with 70% of French citizens backing the move despite concerns about its risks.
Macron’s shifting priorities have left many questioning his commitment to Europe’s shared goals, as internal conflicts overshadow broader strategic interests.
