The New Popular Front questions the legitimacy of Yaël Braun-Pivet’s reelection as President of the National Assembly. The party is currently exploring all legal options available to challenge this decision.
Negotiations to Lead the Country
Jean-Jacques Urvoas, former Minister of Justice under François Hollande, emphasized on franceinfo on July 19th that the best approach to govern is to negotiate, rather than turn to courts that will not be able to do anything. He stated that preparation and negotiation are essential in an election, and should not be imposed. Meanwhile, the New Popular Front has criticized “shady dealings” and announced that they are exploring all possible legal options regarding Yaël Braun-Pivet’s reelection as President of the National Assembly.
The necessity of negotiating according to Jean-Jacques Urvoas
According to Jean-Jacques Urvoas, professor of public law at the University of Western Brittany, the left should negotiate to govern, instead of seeking judicial solutions that will lead to nothing. He emphasized that courts have already declared their incompetence on such matters, and that the left must accept this reality in order to consider governing in the future. He reminded that there was no obligation for the left to hold the presidency of the National Assembly, and that they should have been willing to discuss, formalize agreements, and reach a consensus.
