Macron Seeks to Strengthen French Influence in EU and Boost Party’s Fortunes Through Landmark Speech

Reading Time: < 1 minute

French President Emmanuel Macron is set to deliver a crucial speech outlining his vision for Europe as a global power, hoping to regain momentum and assert his leadership in the face of mounting challenges. With just three years left in his final term, Macron aims to demonstrate that he still possesses the innovative thinking that propelled him to the presidency in 2017.

Facing a decline in popularity and a resurgent far-right party ahead of the European Parliament elections, Macron’s speech at Paris’ Sorbonne University is expected to chart a course for Europe to assert itself on the world stage amidst increasing global tensions. The speech is seen as France’s contribution to the EU’s strategic agenda for the next five years, with Macron’s advisers billing it as a pivotal moment for shaping the bloc’s future direction.

In his previous Sorbonne speech in 2017, Macron introduced concepts like “European sovereignty” and “strategic autonomy,” which have since gained traction in Brussels. He has also successfully pushed for joint debt issuance and environmental initiatives within the EU, but faces challenges in reducing reliance on the U.S. for defense.

As Macron seeks to energize his base and counter the rising popularity of far-right leader Marine Le Pen, the upcoming speech is seen as a crucial moment in his political career. With the European elections looming, Macron’s ability to rally support and outline a bold vision for Europe’s future will be closely watched by both supporters and critics alike.
