Emmanuel Macaron is a centrist politician who values liberal economic policies and social reforms. The world's leading media generally classify Macron as a right-wing Socialist Party member, and further as a centrist . During the Socialist Party, he supported the party's rightward shift. During the 2017 presidential election, he ran away from the Socialist Party, which had no hope, and joined En Marche! In the process of founding the Socialist Party, it attracted many mainstream politicians and its support base. Here, they succeeded in expanding their base to moderate and moderate conservative voters. It is quite similar to the “centrist politicians from center-left parties with right-wing economic views” who followed the “ Third Way ” path of Bill Clinton , Tony Blair , and Gerhard Schröder . Although he is a politician based on a new political party, he is far from populism . Rather, they are criticized for being too elitist .[12]
He himself seems to dislike conflicting ideologies, and has said that he has nothing to do with progress and is rather a socialist .[13] He also expressed, " He is neither left nor right (ni de droite ni de gauche)." But he later said that, to be honest, he was not a socialist. (...) The fact that he advocated for a new center among the left and right in France, where the reasons for his election are polarized, also plays a role. However, as Professor Luc Roubing of the Paris School of Political Science said, there are also warnings that while promoting a moderate approach, one may end up with nothing.
However, in the economic sector, it is enough to be evaluated as an economic liberal.[14] We support the free competition system.[15] As Minister of Economy during the reign of François Hollande, he proposed 'business-friendly' policies, such as deregulating companies and easing working hours and dismissal regulations through the so-called 'Macron Law', showing the rightward shift of the French Socialist Party. News from his time as Minister of Economy . In the government's financial operation, similar to former President Hollande, he emphasized maintaining fiscal soundness and announced that he would reduce the fiscal deficit to less than 3% of GDP through administrative modernization and reduction of civil servants, and promote infrastructure repair and health reform with public investment worth 50 billion euros (approximately 60.8 trillion won) over the next five years. We advocate free trade and support the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), an FTA between the EU and Canada. The need for the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Intermediary Agreement ( TTIP ) with the United States was also acknowledged. Supporting corporate tax cuts and strengthening labor flexibility, the government proposed giving companies discretion in negotiating with workers. And we are also working on pension reform.
On the other hand, in terms of society, center-left positions sometimes appear. In the first place, Macron was elected by voters who rebelled against Marine Le Pen 's anti-immigration and racial policies. In fact, Macron abolished the prison sentence for marijuana and is discussing revising or abolishing the fine. It also promotes many women-friendly policies. Currently, a bill imposing a fine of 90 euros up to 750 euros (approximately 954,757 won) for street catcalling has passed the House of Representatives, and in accordance with France's equal gender law, En Marche lawmakers and cabinet ministers are filled with an equal number of men and women.[16] When it comes to recognizing the history of past imperialism, conservatives also seem to be aware of it, while they seem to be taking a progressive stance.
In fact, Macron has often been called a hard-line liberal , especially a radical economic liberal . Of course, he said he was a socialist or social democrat, but in reality, his policies show a much more strongly fundamentalist and liberal stance, both economically and socially, than typical liberals such as Angela Merkel ( conservative liberalism ) , Barack Obama ( social liberalism ), and David Cameron ( economic liberalism ). Because of this tendency, academically, they are often classified as French libertarians, that is, French libertarians, based on social liberalism, beyond liberals .[17] In general, European liberals have gained considerable power in the 21st century, and unlike in the past, they are more moderate than radical economically or socially. The English Wikipedia also classifies Macron as a libertarian.
In terms of diplomacy, pro- European Union (EU) policies are emphasized. He believes that cooperation with the EU is essential to revitalize France 's economy and strengthen diplomatic security. Angela Merkel, known as the EU leader He is also close to the German Chancellor . He emphasizes that measures are needed to strengthen the eurozone (19 countries that use the euro) and the EU single market. In terms of security, it is argued that the Schengen Agreement (open EU borders) should be maintained, but EU external border security should be strengthened. Also, like German Chancellor Angela Merkel, he promised a policy of embracing refugees . However, he said that he would accept refugees who need 'protection', but if not, he would deport them without delay. Because we aim for a strong European Union, we establish a new Eurozone Parliament.[18] , are strongly advocating for the creation of a unified European army.
Considering the reintroduction of conscription as a domestic security policy ,[19] Nuclear weapon modernization was presented as a pledge. He also announced plans to raise the defense budget to 2% of GDP, recruit 10,000 police officers , and build 15,000 additional prisons.
Education reform was also promised. He said that French education was too monotonous and wanted to give more discretion to local authorities. He also promised to reduce the number of students per class and increase support for teachers working in low-income areas.
Macron also called himself a Maoist , which appears to have been an attempt to take a friendly stance with China . Yonhap News[20] However, they reacted negatively and criticized China's hegemony . Yonhap News also shows a clear tendency toward independence, supporting the implementation of the EU's policy of increasing tariffs on China from 2023.[21]
There is a lot of talk in their country about their strong elitism orientation. They even call for Macron’s resignation. There is already a lot of talk about the reality in France where a small group of elites from the Grande École dominate all areas of society, but it remains to be seen what will happen.
It appears that they are pursuing a strong France and a strong Europe that are not dependent on foreign powers. Seoul Shinmun So, in France, there was public opinion criticizing Macron, calling him authoritarian and comparing him to Zeus . Kyunghyang Shinmun
With youth unemployment in France reaching 20%, the statement "You can work at any job as long as you change your occupation and motivation" became a hot topic, and she was criticized for "ignoring unemployed young people" and even compared to Marie Antoinette . Yonhap News The difference is that although Marie Antoinette's drip, " If you don't have bread, you can eat cake, " was not actually said, Macron actually said it.
Perhaps due to Macron's defense policy, the French military budget is said to be the 5th largest in the world. #
President Macron is not indifferent to the recovery and expansion of France's influence as a colonial suzerain, and is therefore active in directly or indirectly intervening and influencing the internal affairs of former colonies such as Lebanon . However, apart from these political and diplomatic actions, the denotation of words alone often shows a different result from actions.
In an interview in Algeria on February 6, 2017, he said that the past colonial rule of Algeria was a "crime against humanity" and that "France should apologize." This shows that he is on the progressive side of historical awareness. This is a move that contrasts with the right-wing candidates in the same presidential election who criticized Macron's remarks, saying that he was inappropriate and unqualified to be president. François Fillon, a candidate for the main opposition Republican Party, attacked, saying, “Such hatred and repentance toward our history is unqualified to be a presidential candidate of the Republic.”[22] However, Fillon also said, “Not long ago, Macron spoke about the positive aspects of colonial policy . He has no spine and only says what people want to hear.”[23] . Gérald Darmanin, a Republican lawmaker affiliated with former President Nicolas Sarkozy , said on Twitter, "You should be embarrassed to go abroad and insult France." See article
In March 2021, it was revealed that it was true that Ali Boumenzel, an independence activist and lawyer , was arrested and tortured during the Algerian War and then murdered on March 23, 1957. Algeria issued a statement in response, saying, "We are satisfied with President Macron's announcement honoring Boumendzel," adding, "It will enable the two countries to move forward and create stable and peaceful relations." # In October 2021, President Macron summoned the descendants of Algerians who fought on the side of France during the Algerian War of Independence and apologized, saying, "I ask for forgiveness for mobilizing the Algerians into the war." However, after this statement, public opinion was boiling over with comments such as "Algeria's official history is based on hatred of France, not facts," and "Did Algeria exist as a country before French colonization?" President Macron criticized, “The massacre of Algerians 60 years ago is an unforgivable crime.” #
He also apologized to Côte d'Ivoire, which was a colony , saying, “Past colonialism was a serious mistake.” # In October 2020, a bill was passed to return looted cultural properties from Benin and Senegal . #
However, contrary to his actions, he is also being criticized for creating a coup belt of African countries that were French colonies due to diplomatic mistakes toward African countries . The biggest reason is that he is still arrogant as if he were his boss, and the pro-French democracy camp is seen by locals as a vested interest that blocks reform.

4. evaluation
During his youth, he showed off his outstanding intellectual ability comparable to that of France's ' Giovanni Pico della Mirandola ', and during his youth, he entered France's most elite career , succeeded in expressing his own political philosophy in 2016 , and succeeded in ascending to the position of French President through the 2017 French presidential election . Unlike other national leaders, he is a very personal and political person with a double balance, so he can be seen as a politician who requires a detailed internal approach for a comprehensive evaluation.
4.1. economy
The three key policies of the Macron government are large-scale fostering of startups , strengthening of labor flexibility, and large-scale corporate tax reduction . #
Labor market flexibility is a policy that has been effective in many other countries as it reduces the burden on employers when hiring.
In fact, there has been a lot of disagreement in France about the economy since Macron took office. Some argue that the French economy is escaping the recession thanks to pro-business policies such as labor reform, tax cuts, and support for startups since Macron took office, but it is criticized for facing social inequality due to a lack of employment opportunities and public services, and welfare cuts. In addition, France's public expenditure ratio is the highest among OECD countries, and its tax system is very complex due to numerous exemptions and support systems, resulting in high compliance and collection costs. In some ways, this is a case where the problems of neoliberalism and Keynesianism appear simultaneously. Wealth inequality and fiscal deficit issues are essential to each theory. Since there is no perfect solution, the key is how well it can be controlled, but President Macron is good at controlling it in his own way.
Although the unemployment rate has fallen, it is still about twice as high as in the UK or the US , and it even showed a brief increase in the third quarter of 2019. However, in terms of resolving France's chronic recession and high unemployment to some extent, the right-wing media especially praises it, saying that it succeeded in breaking the iron rice bowl of strong labor unions that all French presidents could not even dare to abolish.
As of 2023, France's annual GDP growth rate recorded 0.9%, exceeding the Eurozone and EU's growth rate of 0.7% in the same period.
In addition, the national debt to GDP was 117.8%in March 2021, during the 1921 Corona 19, and fell 111.7%in September 2023. This is in line with the trend of other European countries, and it is quite good when compared to the US, where the debt ratio has risen since Corona. #
However, the following year, due to the corporate tax cut and the unabated fiscal deficit, national debt soared, ultimately leading to the humiliation of having the credit rating downgraded from AA to AA- in June 2024. In addition, due to the interest rate increase, government bond interest rates have doubled in four years, causing difficulties. Ultimately, this crisis led to the defeat of the ruling party in the 2024 general election .
Afterwards, Michel Barnier's cabinet tried to overcome the impasse through large-scale austerity and tax increase policies, but instead, a no-confidence motion was submitted for the first time in 62 years due to collaboration between the left and right opposition parties, which only increased political instability and made the economy more difficult.
International credit rating agency Fitch announced that it had downgraded France's national credit rating by one level from 'AA-' to 'A+' on September 12, 2025. In a report released on this day, Fitch explained the reason for the downgrade, saying, “The government’s defeat in the vote of confidence shows that political division and polarization have deepened,” and “It raises questions about the government’s ability to reduce the fiscal deficit.” It has been two years since France's credit rating was downgraded from 'AA' to 'AA-' in 2023. The current A+ grade is one level lower than that of the UK and Korea , and is at the same level as Belgium .
Labor market flexibility is a policy that has been effective in many other countries as it reduces the burden on employers when hiring.

The current A+ grade is one level lower than that of the UK and Korea , and is at the same level as Belgium .
4.2. society
The policies implemented in the economic sector have significant implications, but in terms of society, they have been criticized for pushing forward bold reforms. One of the most representative examples is that if one believes that one’s ideas are right, they are pushed to the point of being seen as self-righteous. Macron has already triggered the yellow vest movement by forcibly pushing forward with a fuel tax increase. In particular, the fact that he branded all protesters as “far-right rioters” at the height of the protests remains a major source of criticism. In the end, the situation came to an end when President Macron accepted some of the protesters’ demands, such as the abolition of the fuel tax increase and strengthening the national representation of the National Assembly.
In terms of policy, one of the main criticisms is that the reform of the education system is carried out too hastily. Macron is pursuing a plan to drastically revamp the French education system, represented by the baccalaureate, and unify the baccalaureate course, which was divided into various tracks such as science, social studies, and humanities . The problem is that these important institutional changes are introduced right from the beginning of the 2020s without a guidance period. In addition, it is becoming a big problem that while fixing the baccalaureate, there is no plan to improve elitism, which is a chronic problem of French education.
Meanwhile, the policy of strengthening 'patriotism education' in France is also being criticized. In particular, the policy of placing the French flag in classrooms and teaching La Marseillaise compulsorily has become a subject of controversy. Macron's policy is facing criticism for being collectivist, coupled with the controversy over conscription in France. In addition, in France, criticism of La Marseillaise 's violence and racist lyrics has continued for a long time.
Foreign countries were no exception, so they became the culprits influencing the arrest of Carlos Ghosn by instigating the conflict between the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance .

4.3. diplomacy
Emphasizes the unity and collective security system of NATO/EU countries. The core argument is that if the United States takes an isolationist path, European countries must unite to establish a security posture independent of the United States. On the other hand, because of his strong liberal tendencies, Donald Trump He is very negative about the U.S. president 's isolationist stance, and was caught on camera by The Guardian after joining a conversation dissing President Trump during the NATO summit held at Buckingham Palace .
Meanwhile, Macron once said, “NATO is not the enemy of Russia and China .” In particular, Macron had a very bad relationship with the United States during the Trump administration, and he once openly said, "The United States is the enemy of Europe," and President Trump reacted to Macron's remarks.
For this reason, Macron appears to be preparing for Europeanism by expanding France's military while trying to reduce the NATO contribution ratio. Even during the Ukraine War , when the United States refused to support fighter jets, the United States continued to be unfriendly with the United States, offering an offer under conditions. Starting with a visit to China in April 2023, the country is losing ground by making hostile remarks such as " There is no need to get caught up in the United States on the Taiwan issue" and "Just because it is an alliance with the United States does not mean it has become a vassal state." #

“The real reason France is upset is because it was ‘ostracized’ by English-speaking countries, the ‘Anglo-Saxon’ people that French President de Gaulle hated so much” - NYTFrance angered by 'Anglo-Saxon' bullying... NYT‧BBC "Admit the reality" advice #
However, Macron also has a lot to say. Not long ago, France was completely ignored, including not knowing about the launch of Ocus, a tripartite diplomatic and security consultative body between Britain , the United States , and Australia . Not only was it a loss of face, but the aftermath of Ocus resulted in a loss of at least 46 trillion won and up to 77 trillion won.[24] The submarine contract with Australia was canceled, leading to severe criticism in France for being incompetent and taking responsibility for it. The reason the Australian government canceled this contract was in the name of securing a nuclear submarine , and Macron had long ago offered to switch to nuclear propulsion if desired , but it was none other than Australia that refused. Then, suddenly, a knife is inserted in the back, so of course he is bound to be very angry... Macron expressed strong anger and poured out criticism at the United States and Australia. In order to appease Macron, who was angry to the end, the United States issued a public apology from Secretary of State Tony Blinken # followed by Biden.

In fact, the Australian government paid the price for relying on it and arbitrarily canceling the contract. Britain and the United States also cannot afford to deliver nuclear submarines to Australia in the near future . In the end, it was decided to directly import from the United States, but in fact, it is expected that delivery will not be possible until 2048 , and with a budget exceeding 86 trillion won, Australia decided to extend the life of the Collins class , called the sea cultivator , until 2048. It would have been much better not to terminate the contract.
For reference, the reason the existing contract amount with France was so high was because it included the modernization of the Australian shipbuilding industry. Australia lacks manufacturing capabilities, so the cost-effectiveness of domestically produced weapons tends to be significantly low. However, this time, the introduction of American nuclear submarines is a direct introduction, so of course there is no modernization of Australian shipyards. In this case, it would have been much more beneficial for Australia to simply accept Macron's proposal to change to nuclear propulsion, receive French nuclear submarines at an appropriate time, and modernize the Australian shipbuilding industry to gain self-reliance capabilities.

Even people who are quite interested in politics have limited information about the political situation in the United States , Japan , North Korea , Russia , and China , and it is not easy to accept information about French politics that has little direct connection to Korea. However, Macron received a lot of attention due to his centrist stance and his very young age of 39 when he was elected in 2017, so he received a lot of fragmentary evaluations. In this approach, the Democratic Party , progressive forces , and their affiliated media paid attention to him, saying that he would be progressive because he is a young politician, but the conservative party and conservative media such as Cho, Joong-dong, and economic magazines paid attention to Macron's market-friendly economy and labor reform and published many articles affirming him.

7. analects
There are many liberal and elitist comments. There are many statements that are surprisingly strong by Korean standards, and although Macron has a self-righteous personality, Europe is much more tolerant of the expression of opinions by individuals, including politicians.
Nationalism is the exact opposite of patriotism. Old wraiths are resurrected to sow the seeds of chaos and death. History sometimes seeks to overturn the legacy of peace forged by the blood of our ancestors and repeat tragic patterns.At the ceremony commemorating the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I held at the Arc de Triomphe in Paris in 2018.
I will not back down from the forces that spread nationalists and hate speech. If they want to consider me their main enemy, they are right.Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini , Hungarian Prime Minister It was assessed as an indirect attack on Viktor Orbán .
Helping companies is for the country, not for the rich, and it is a big mistake to think that you can protect workers without protecting companies.
It is absurd to pretend that you can redistribute wealth without creating any wealth.
lack of sympathyRemarks made by the far-right populist regime in Italy in 2018 regarding its refusal to accept Muslim refugees.
In France, there is an equal number of male and female politicians. However, the existing political parties did not abide by it by paying fines. Our party is different from established parties such as the Socialist Party and the Republican Party. We respect women, and we will equalize the number of male and female MPs in En Marche!In fact, in France, there is an equal number of men and women. However, since successive ruling parties did not keep it well, and even the Socialist Party did not keep it, En Marche is guarding it like a knife.
Even if you give away money like crazy, you can't escape poverty.This is an off-the-cuff remark about the inefficiency of the French social security budget and system. It was a rather aggressive expression, so it was quite repulsive, and it received carpet bombing from the left camp in particular.
If you have the will, there is no place that does not hire a hotel, cafe, food, building, or anywhere I go. To be honest, if you go to Montparnasse, where there are many cafes and restaurants, you will find a job easily.Remarks made by an unemployed landscaper when he appealed for unemployment. It was meant to be a job first, rather than just looking for a position as a landscaper, but this was a remark that could have been overlooked initially, but was later criticized when the landscaper said in an interview with the media, "I really couldn't get a job because there were no jobs at all."
You can't make more money by working less, and you can't increase government spending by cutting taxes.2019 new year speech remarks
The conscription system is necessary to inspire a correct view of the state and bring about unity in the increasingly individualistic and divided French society.Macron is known as a liberal, but surprisingly, he also views things like the emphasis on the flag and national anthem and the short-term conscription system positively. If we were to make a connection, it could be understood as a desire to achieve homogeneity among people by entering the military, even if only for one month (to be exact, once you turn 18, regardless of gender, you enter the military for just one month of basic military training within three years) in France, which is increasingly becoming a multi-racial and multi-ethnic society.[26] Paradoxically, this could be a statement presented as a kind of far-right blockade to protect freedom by restricting some of it. Moreover, since France also switched to a volunteer military system, young people are equally reluctant to join the military, so there are many people who support the revival of the conscription system to maintain a minimum adequate number of troops.
This is a problem because China and the US will not consider Europe to be as independent as they are. It is up to us (not the United States represented by NATO) to take responsibility and guarantee our security.On August 27, 2018, criticizing the Trump administration's security unilateralism
It will annoy unvaccinated people.Openly discriminating against unvaccinated people. As a result, after the Omicron mutation spread to the whole nation, the unvaccinated people died in a huge amount, so it was a correct decision.
If you want to make a revolution, you must first get a degree and know how to make a living for yourself.At a ceremony commemorating the 78th anniversary of De Gaulle's resistance, a teenage boy who hummed the International Song in front of him and called Macron "Maneu" as if he were a subordinate said, "At official events, you should call me President!" This is what he said after scolding him. # # Contrary to what is known in Korea, the boy did not insult Macron locally, but he scolded him so openly in front of others, so of course he was heavily criticized in France.
8. family affair
![]() |
Macron and Brigitte. |
In October 2007, Macron made headlines by marrying Brigitte Marie-Claude Trogneux (born 1953), a teacher and the mother of his friend, who was 24 years older than him . Her wife, Brigitte, was a high school teacher of French and Latin , and the two first met as student and teacher at the Lycée la Providence in Amiens in 1993.
At the time, Brigitte was 40 years old and married with one son and two daughters, and Laurence, the eldest daughter, was Macron's classmate. Macron took Brigitte's theater class, wrote a play with her, and became close to her at the same time. Macron's parents thought he liked Laurence, but[27] I was shocked to learn that he liked Brigitte.Isn’t it obvious? After consulting with Brigitte, her parents accept Brigitte's recommendation and transfer Macron to Paris. However, before leaving for Paris, Macron said to Brigitte, "I will come back and marry you." Later, as Macron said, Brigitte divorced her husband in January 2006 and remarried Macron the following year, 2007. . At the time of marriage, Macron was 30 years old and Brigitte was 54 years old.
Brigitte had a son and two daughters, including a son, Sébastien (engineer), who is two years older than Macron, a daughter, Laurence (doctor), who was in the same school class as Macron, and a daughter, Tifen (lawyer), who is seven years younger than Macron. They had seven children, and Macron had seven step-grandchildren in his 30s. They appear to have a good relationship with Macron, attending his wedding in 2007 and participating in his election campaign when he was a presidential candidate. Meanwhile, Brigitte's ex-husband André-Louis Auzière (born 1951), a banker, lived in seclusion after divorcing Brigitte and passed away lonely at the age of 69 in December 2019. # According to his children, he lived in hiding because he did not want to attract attention. For this reason, it is virtually impossible to obtain information about him on the Internet, and there is an anecdote that immediately after Macron was elected, French reporters also tried to find his whereabouts, but all were in vain.
French national sentiment is not entirely without Catholic conservatism.[28] , with the rise of feminism[29] The Macron couple was heavily criticized for applying moral standards from the perspective of 'abuse of power relations'. If you look at the comments on the news about the Macron couple, there was an atmosphere of disgust, criticizing Brigitte as a "40-year-old pedophile in love with a 15-year-old boy " and saying, "If Macron were my son, I would have definitely separated him from Brigitte."[30]
There was also a controversy when Charlie Hebdo put out a cartoon that mocked the relationship openly .[31]
However, overall, it still received a lukewarm response to the point where even countries such as the UK found it strange. In France, only a few people thought it was strange, and in fact, English-speaking and Asian cultures found it strange. Britain's Guardian newspaper reported, "There was a reaction of quiet disdain (met with a shrug)." # Inside France, they did not want a 'post-adolescent' or young first lady, but rather a president with experience, or 'age difference, what did we do in the beginning? The view is that groups (Catholics, bourgeoisie) who shout about morality have covered up the problem by saying, "You didn't do anything (Différence d'âge, qu'a-t-on fait à l'origine sinon rien)" # and are now acting as if they are expressing moral anger. It is often argued that while politicians in other countries are decadent and extravagant, the Macron couple is much neater and has a sense of public responsibility. Public criticism also focuses on 'meeting a minor' rather than on his age. The people who attacked were mostly the media and some women in the female community, not politicians from the opposing camp. The approval rating was focused on whether he was good at politics rather than personal life issues, and he was able to obtain a majority approval rating in the early days of his election, but his authoritarian image was a factor that further lowered his approval rating.
In April 2021, France set the legal age for rape at 15 years old (since it is full age, it is 3rd year of middle school or 1st year of high school in Korean age). In parliament, this bill, which may have something to do with Bridget, was passed unanimously. # They say they were adults when they got married, but they clearly dated when they were minors, and there could have been any number of sexual relationships. There was a stronger argument from the left wing that it was an attempt to cover up the misdeeds of other politicians, such as Olivier Duhamel, rather than Macron. Rather, the bill by a lawmaker from En Marche, Macron's political party, was a tougher bill that would uniformly punish all sexual relations between people under the age of 15, not teenagers. # So even when this law was passed, it had no significant impact on approval ratings in France. At that time, his approval rating was stagnant. #
Macron said he was tired of even talking about the accusations against him and his wife , and that if he were 24 years older than him, no one would have accused him of an inappropriate relationship . In fact, this is in contrast to the fact that Donald Trump and Melania Trump, who were elected and inaugurated as president around the same time as Macron, were 24 years apart and did not receive much criticism. However, Donald Trump at least did not take his child's friend as his wife, and since both of them dated after becoming adults, it is not something to be criticized. Melania began dating Trump in 1998, when she was 28 years old. And since Trump divorced Ivana Trump in 1991 and began dating Melania seven years later, there is no comparison.
Brigitte comes from a family that runs a dessert shop with a long history, and the French media openly calls her upper class, so it is said that she provided decisive help in the process of gathering power in the process of being selected as a candidate for Macron. So, Macron planned to have Brigitte officially perform the duties of First Lady, but just before Macron took office, it was discovered that former Prime Minister François Fillon had hired his wife as his secretary and extorted a large amount of tax money under the name. So, fearing that the first lady would also misappropriate tax money, a national petition appeared saying, "Don't do anything that costs tax money," and Macron's plan to make the first lady's work more formal than before was aborted due to public opinion. In the end, Macron decided not to have an affiliated office during his term and established additional regulations. So for Brigitte, all she gets is the courtesy of one or two secretaries. Brigitte reassured the public, saying, "I consider myself the president's wife, not the first lady."
A drama based on the meeting and marriage of these two is being produced. #
In Korea, a derivative of the Joe Biden dementia meme, a dementia meme of Brigitte is also emerging. While the dementia meme of Biden or Elizabeth II is a pattern of confusing modern history and the present based on the image of an old person, this one is based on the fact that the couple were originally a priest and disciple, and Brigitte scolds Emmanuel for talking back to her as a teacher. #
In 2025, Macron's video of his wife's cheeks was released. May 25, Vietnam What was hit by my wife when I got off at Hanoi Airport . # The president has explained the expression and joke of intimacy. #
Although the reason is unknown, the rumor that Lady Brigitte is a man is quite widespread in the Western world. Candice Owens , one of the American conservative influencers, also attacked the Macron couple by mentioning this conspiracy theory, which led to the Macron couple suing Candice in 2025.

According to the testimony of his classmate at the National School of Public Administration , he was already acquainted with the president at the time of the entrance ceremony. Even when he had just joined Rothschild, he was said to have disarmed his colleagues by asking people around him about basic terms that would have been embarrassing to ask others, rather than looking up documents, and saying "thank you" repeatedly. The special contracts that made him vice president were not due to his professional skills as a financier, but rather to the connections he formed while working at the Financial Audit Service.

[1] Andorra's joint official position.[2] 2022 On April 24 , he won the presidential runoff election and will be re-elected in 2027. The reappointment was confirmed until May 12th .[3] He is 24 years older than me.[4] He was forced to transfer schools due to a scandal with his current wife, Brigitte Macron . However, this is not a gathering place for problem children; rather, it is considered one of the two most prestigious French houses along with the Lycée Louis-le-Grand. #[5] It disappeared in 2005 as a pre-doctoral degree only in France.[6] It is one of the most prestigious schools in France. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that the French political world is full of graduates of this school. However, in 2021, Macron announced that the school would be closed in 2022 as the French people opposed the elitism of the political world. In fact, it is a situation where he has closed his alma mater.[7] I was baptized at the age of 12 .[8] Macron was an assistant to Christian philosopher Paul Ricoeur , and Ricoeur himself wrote in a book that he was grateful to him. Source He relaxed France's policy of religious neutrality, drawing much criticism from socialists and progressives. Source : He also had an unusually long meeting with the Pope . First of all, he was baptized by his own doctor and not by his parents' sources . However, it also pursued secularist policies.[9] https://www.lefigaro.fr/actualite-france/2018/06/25/01016-20180625ARTFIG00320-emmanuel-macron-un-agnostique-baptise.php[10] The President's Office disclosed Macron's religious views as spiritual agnostic.[11] It is easy to understand if you think of him as a co -prince .[12] Not only Macron but also traditional libertarians tend to have very strong elitist tendencies. Of course, in some regions where classical liberalism is a traditional value, such as North America , it is sometimes associated with right-wing populism , but in most regions, libertarians generally tend to be wary of radicalized democracy . Non-libertarian liberalism can partially tolerate situations where freedom is violated by the public according to the logic of real politics, but libertarians approach the concept of 'freedom' in a more fundamental (or, at worst, fundamentalist) way. This is why Hayek advocated elitism to prevent democracy from flowing into collectivism , and the reason why Macron makes strong remarks against the extreme right, extreme left, and vaccine conspiracy theorists without paying attention to the public, as in the 'Quotes' section, is because he believes that they are eroding true 'freedom'. (However, Hayek is a person close to right-wing libertarianism, so there is a difference in inclination from Macron.)[13] Rather than being a social liberal, there are quite a few cases in which he has openly stated that he is a socialist since the days of the Socialist Party. (He also called himself a Maoist.) Example : Of course, he has not said it often since the founding of En Marche.[14] However, as the intensity of criticism from left-wing supporters increases, the stance is not as strong as it was at the beginning of the administration. In addition, it appears that it supports high levels of offshore tariffs if it is for the national interest.[15] For this reason, lawyer Jeon Won- chaek classified him as a right-winger before and after coming to power, but on the other hand, there were others who viewed him disparagingly, calling him a 'French version of the Gangnam leftist '. It can be seen as an economic right wing and a social left wing.[16] The Socialist Party, the previous ruling party, paid a fine for failing to comply with the law on equal numbers of men and women.[17] Jocelyn Evans, Gilles Ivaldi, The 2017 French Presidential Elections: A Political Reformation?. (2007)[18] The idea is to create an organization that is responsible for euro-related legislation, separate from the European Parliament , in which all EU member countries participate, by gathering only countries that use the euro . However, as an alternative, there are opinions that suggest that members of the European Parliament from euro zone countries should also serve as members of the euro zone parliament, or that instead of creating a euro zone parliament, a committee composed only of members from euro zone member states should be formed within the European Parliament to handle bills that only apply to the euro zone. The latter is similar to the British Parliament 's EVEL .[19] Male and female short-term conscription system # . However, since it has not been implemented so far, it is highly likely that these were empty words. Even within France, public opinion is negative about the conscription system and there is not much support.[20] China 's reaction to this Dong-A Ilbo[21] If this policy is implemented, it is expected that Germany, which is a leading country in the EU and exports a significant amount of automobiles to China, will suffer greater losses than France.[22] Of course, not only in France but also in former colonial countries, it is common for progressives to insist on an apology and compensation to former colonial countries, while conservatives take an opposing stance, saying that there is no need for that. Even Germany , which is said to have thoroughly cleaned up its past history during the Nazi era , is refusing to issue an official apology from the government for the problems committed by the German Empire and is trying to resolve them by paying small amounts of money. For example, Namibia, which suffered great damage from the Namibia genocide during German colonial rule, is consistently saying, "We may acknowledge it, but we cannot apologize," and is trying to compensate by paying compensation of only 10 million euros (KRW 13.9 billion) and investing in the economy. The German government is even reluctant to use the term compensation itself, and it is assessed that Germany is trying to encroach on Namibia economically under the name of compensation for economic investment. In terms of clearing up past history, the country is taking the same steps as Japan , which is evaluated in contrast to Germany . Other countries' actions are not much different, with the UK only making its first apology in 2013.[23] First of all, the article pointed out the remarks made in an interview with a weekly magazine in October of last year. In an interview with Le Point at the time, Macron said, "There was torture in Algeria during the colonial period, but the middle class emerged and a national system was established. This is the reality of colonial policy, and there are civilizational aspects and barbaric aspects." come out[24] If you don't feel how huge it is, Korea's defense expenses are about 60 trillion won. I have blown the amount that is equivalent to the defense cost of the country, the 10th largest developed country in the world .[25] #[26] In fact, compared to refugees or immigrants who have not undergone any socialization , immigrants who served in the military of the country they are immigrating to are much more likely to blend into the values of the country and adhere to its rules. In a way, it is natural that military service requires a certain level of patriotism for the country in which one will serve and a tendency to obey laws and regulations. In addition, compared to other immigrants who live in ghettoized neighborhoods with only people from their country of origin, in the military, they can live with people from various backgrounds and naturally acquire a tolerant culture. Before the rapid rise of anti-immigrantism, the MAVNI program was operated in the United States and the Foreign Legion was operated in many European countries and citizenship was granted to those personnel because it was possible to accept as immigrants those who were guaranteed a minimum level through military service.[27] In fact, it is natural to think about it.[28] These were the strongest negative forces against Macron's spouse.[29] The idea that "gender roles have been dismantled" and the view that "there is a problem with power relations and institutional hierarchy" coexisted in the women's world.[30] It may be a private area, but since it was an adulterous relationship between a minor and an adult in the first place , the feminist camp in France does not sit idly by. There is still a clear tendency to perceive holding politicians back due to private life issues as a low-level political maneuver, as there is a precedent with Bill Clinton . In fact, since politicians are essentially public figures, it is difficult to clearly distinguish between the public and private spheres, so it was bound to explode at some point.[31] Charley Epdo is also a controversial newspaper in the name of freedom of expression. Muhammad had a satire and ridiculed ridicule, which resulted in the shooting of Charlie Epdo, where 12 people, including the editor -in -chief in 2015, before the election of Macron, were killed by guns.[32] Of course, this is not the standard DS 7 sold on the market, but a special specification with improvements and options added for ceremonial use.[33] The vehicles Nicolas Sarkozy rode were semi-large cars, the Renault Bell Satis and the Peugeot 607 .[34] Even Winfried Kretschman, the German Chancellor of Baden-Württemberg, belongs to the Green Party, but the vehicle used is a Mercedes S-Class, not a compact car like the Volkswagen Golf.
