French President Emmanuel Macron condemned recent riots and looting across major cities, asserting that those responsible for the unrest will be held accountable. He urged politicians to reject violence and highlighted the distinction between peaceful protests and chaotic actions amid heightened tensions ahead of next year’s presidential election.
Pope Leo XIV led the Angelus prayer in St Peter’s Square on Sunday, following his discharge from hospital after lung surgery for a pulmonary adenocarcinoma. The Pontiff expressed gratitude to supporters and doctors, indicating he will gradually resume activities, including a planned trip to Latin America in November.
French President Macron pledged to hold accountable all individuals who incited recent chaos, reinforcing the commitment to justice for the crimes committed. Prime Minister Lecornu highlighted the unsustainability of using limited public funds to address the ongoing damage caused by vandalism.
“Interest rates would rise. The financial markets are worried about France. They don’t know which way our country is headed. … France’s attractiveness would decline. In recent years, since 2015, France has become more attractive to foreign investors. … But since the dissolution of parliament, investors have been asking themselves: should they invest elsewhere?

The fall of the Barnier government would only fuel this spiral of mistrust.”

Right now, everyone realises that the future of the government lies in her hands, since it can only stay in power thanks to her goodwill. She is playing this card well by raising the stakes. If a new government is appointed in the near future, whether on a joint (undoubtedly more left-wing) basis or as a ‘technical’ government, her influence would be severely limited, if not reduced to zero.”
