France's business elite is grappling to live with a new more hostile political order a month after far-right and hard-left parties robbed President Emmanuel Macron's government of its control of parliament.
AIX-EN-PROVENCE, France - France's business elite is grappling to live with a new more hostile political order a month after far-right and hard-left parties robbed President Emmanuel Macron's government of its control of parliament.
A CEO at one of France's largest industrial companies said that they had contact with some of the new lawmakers and meanwhile were paying closer attention to legislation in the pipeline. The far-right Rassemblement National has yet to indicate how obstructive it intends to be. It also remains to be seen whether Macron's party can win cooperation from the conservative Les Republicains.
While some companies seek to build bridges with opposition parties, others are counting on their public support eroding away as the voters who elected them come to the conclusion that their most radical promises cannot be implemented.
