The pan-left alliance New Popular Front, which won the most seats in the French National Assembly, will pick its candidate for prime minister “within the week,” Socialist Party leader Olivier Faure (pictured) stated on Monday.
However, Faure said that the left coalition will have to be willing to discuss other political options as it did not win an absolute majority in the second round of parliamentary elections. “I support what we have proposed to the French people with great energy and hope, but we have to be realistic, and we will have to talk things over,” he said in a press conference.
