Bruno Retailleau has called on former Prime Ministers and local leaders to participate in primary elections to prevent a clash between far-right and far-left candidates in the upcoming presidential elections. He emphasizes the urgency of uniting moderate candidates to counter the rising influence of Jean-Luc Mélenchon. Retailleau suggests a meeting within two weeks to organize these primaries, although Edouard Philippe opposes the idea. The presidential elections are scheduled for April and May 2027, with Macron unable to run again after two terms.
