Prime Minister Gabriel Attal spoke at his official residence, Hôtel de Matignon in Paris.
He stated that “tonight, none of the extremes can claim a majority,” crediting the “French spirit” for this outcome.
He highlighted that many members of President Macron’s Ensemble alliance have been re-elected, calling being PM the “honour of my life.”
Attal noted that although Ensemble won three times the number of seats predicted, they still don’t have a majority.
Therefore, he announced, “tomorrow morning, I will hand in my resignation to the President of the Republic.”
Despite this, he mentioned he will stay in his role “as long as my duty requires.”
