00:00
French President Emmanuel Macron did not name a leftist prime minister and will hold a new
00:07
round of consultations in an effort to form a new government.
00:12
The left-wing New Popular Front Alliance won the most seats in July's snap legislative
00:17
elections but not enough to govern.
00:21
The party nominated Lucie Castaix as prime minister who says she is ready to govern and
00:26
willing to compromise to get things done.
00:29
We are here to remind the president the importance of respecting the election results and to
00:35
get the country out of the paralysis in which it is plunged.
00:40
We have come to propose a solution of stability.
00:43
But far-right leaders that met with Macron on Monday said the party would block a prime
00:48
ministerial candidate from the left-wing alliance.
00:52
Our position remains unchanged compared to the one we expressed in the legislative elections.
00:58
The New Popular Front, in its program, in its movements and in the personalities that
01:03
it embodies, represents today a danger for the public order, for civil peace and of course
01:09
for the country's economic life.
01:10
Marine Le Pen called for an exception for the National Assembly to be convened before
01:15
a prime minister is appointed.
01:19
The New Popular Front said they would not partake new consultations with Macron unless
01:24
it was to discuss Castaix's nomination.
