Emmanuel Macron's presidency in France has been a rollercoaster ride, marked by highs and lows that have reshaped the country's political landscape. Macron's initial promise of centrist reform and unity gave way to a deepening division and a surge of far-right influence.
His bold economic policies, including tax cuts for the wealthy and environmental initiatives, sparked public outrage and led to widespread protests, most notably the 'yellow vest' movement in 2018.
Despite facing criticism and challenges, Macron navigated the COVID-19 pandemic with strict measures and economic support, leading to a projected growth in the French economy.
However, Macron's approval ratings have plummeted, reflecting a growing discontent among the French populace. His decision to call snap elections backfired, resulting in a fragmented parliament and a weakened political position.
As Macron grapples with internal pressures and far-right advancements, his legacy remains uncertain, with implications for the future of French politics and society.
With the far right gaining ground and eyeing the presidency in 2027, Macron's political gamble has left a lasting impact on France, raising questions about the country's direction and the challenges ahead.
