Emmanuel Macron will not participate in the Elysée 2022 program on Tuesday, broadcast on France 2, as revealed by Le Parisien on Monday April 4.
The presidential election is approaching since the first round will take place on April 10, in a few days. These last moments are important for the candidates who chain interviews and meetings in order to challenge the French and convince them to vote for them. If all have agreed to go on television sets, in particular that of France 2, this is not the case of Emmanuel Macron. The current President of the Republic will not participate in the show Elysée 2022 Tuesday, April 5, as revealed the Parisian this Monday. This is hosted by Léa Salamé and Laurent Guimier and both have already received Valérie Pécresse, Anne Hidalgo, Éric Zemmour, Yannick Jadot and Philippe Poutou. The Head of State will therefore be the only presidential candidate not to go there. According to his entourage, it is a planning problem. “We made choices, as we did not make BFM or CNews, for example“, first explained his team to the newspaper before ensuring that there is “no problem with France 2, nor with the public service“.

It could be Gabriel Attal, the government spokesman but, as Le Parisien reported, this idea was not accepted by the head of state’s competitors. In an open letter, the Society of Journalists of France 2 wished to speak directly to Emmanuel Macron. “Mr Macron, why are you refusing the invitations from France 2?“, they first asked before adding: “We regret it, and so do our viewers. For months, France 2 has been the only general-interest channel to devote so much time to the debate, proposals and analysis of this presidential campaign.“, it is specified.

The refusal of the Head of State to come on the set of the show did not discourage the production which, as indicated by the Parisian, will show images of his meeting, held at the Defense Arena this Sunday, April 3.
