Emmanuel Macron has resumed his travels in the territories. The President of the Republic has been in Creuse since Monday, January 24, before going to Haute-Vienne on Tuesday. Objective: to show the inhabitants of rural areas that he has not forgotten them.
With our special correspondent in the Creuse, Valerie Gas
Two and a half months before the presidential election, Emmanuel Macron does not want to be locked into his image of president of cities.
Especially since his opponents, Valérie Pécresse and Marine Le Pen in particular, are increasing their trips to the territories and constantly describe him as a president “ offline »
Emmanuel Macron has therefore decided to put his suitcases down for two days in the center of France to show that he too has his feet in the land.
President or candidate? As soon as he arrived in Creuse, the question was put to him by a young person from the agricultural school he was visiting in Ahun.
” I am 18 years old and suddenly, it will be my first election. Are you standing for re-election? “, he asks her, causing laughter.
That’s it, are you registered on the lists, already? This is good. No, I, in due course, will announce my decision. I will already continue to fight until the end, because as you have demonstrated yourself, we still have a lot to do. If everything had been settled, but it is not.
Emmanuel Macron is pursuing his strategy: to ensure that his candidacy appears obvious, while waiting for the right moment to make it official. Just to take advantage of his presidential position a little more.
