Wauquiez Unveils Legislative Pact for France

Published: 2024-07-23

Laurent Wauquiez, the new leader of the La Droite Républicaine group, has unveiled a legislative pact aimed at addressing urgent national issues within 100 days.

This "emergency legislative pact" includes thirteen proposed laws focusing on key areas such as security, immigration, and economic competitiveness.

Wauquiez emphasized that this initiative is not a coalition with the Macron government, but rather a commitment to push for reforms independently.

He stated that the right will support these laws if the government engages with them, while also warning against any tax increases or pension cuts.

The pact reflects a strategic move to position the right as a serious political force amid ongoing negotiations for key parliamentary roles.
