I'm not an expert either, my friend, but from what I understand, he, as president, can do this. That crazy law must be Napoleon's fault. LOL
At least we now have hope that with these new elections, he may lose strength and will not follow this crazy plan of entering a war and starting something even much bigger than that.
Well I think it is throughout the parliamentary system, not exclusive to France but I could be wrong.
I read that it was European parliament elections. It has nothing to do with France, but Macron's party was defeated.
With these new elections in France, Macron is likely to have a new defeat, as his people are so happy with their leader.
