Emmanuel Macron (born December 21, 1977) is a liberal French politician and a former Banker of the Rothschild & Cie Banque.[1] Since May 14, 2017 he became the 25th president of the French Republic. On May 7, 2017, he won the French Presidential election, defeating right-wing populist Marine Le Pen, with 66.1 percent of the vote. He strongly supports the socialist and globalist European Union.

Biography

Macron was born on 21 December 1977 in Amiens, he studied on the Jésuites de la Providence and later philosophy on the Paris Nanterre University.

Business career

Macron worked for the Inspection générale des finances, a financial administrative body in France. He left this company with a transfer of €50.000.[2] After that he worked in a high rank at the Banque Rothschild & Cie.

En Marche! and the 2017 French presidential election

Macron was a member of the French Socialist Party (Parti Socialiste) in the past, in 2016 he founded the party En Marche! a leftist liberal party which called for a federal European Union, mass-immigration and more anti-Israel policies which continue after five years by President Hollande.[3]

Former United States President Barack Obama spoke with Macron, indicating his support for the candidate in the 2017 French presidential election.[4] After the first round, Obama explicitly endorsed Macron's candidacy.[5] By contrast, incumbent U.S. President Donald Trump called his opponent, the eurosceptic Marine Le Pen, the strongest of the presidential candidates, particularly on borders and security;[6] and British politician and radio talk show host Nigel Farage endorsed Le Pen.[7]

During the last days of the campaign, Macron stated that terrorism would be "part of our daily lives for the years to come."[8] He voiced opposition to arresting and deporting the known radical Islamists in France due to "intelligence" purposes.[9]

Macron won first place in the first round of the election, advancing to the runoff along with Le Pen.[10]

During the election runoff, a socially conservative group which promotes family values, Manif pour Tous ("Protest for everyone"), strongly urged voters not to vote for Macron due to his extreme socially leftist and anti-family policies.[11]

The media is desperate to influence the election outcome and has framed Macron in a flattering light. They call Macron an independent centrist.[12] Yet he is a left-wing liberal who openly and strongly supports globalism, extreme European integration and the EU, the politically socialist status quo, and left-wing former U.S. President Barack Obama. Macron is no different from the current French president Hollande.

In April 2017, Macron refused to communicate and denied press access to the Russian state channel RT, which his campaign accused of spreading fake news and disinformation.[13][14] This measure is comparable to President Trump's decision to refuse several liberal media outlets, such as CNN, from his press meetings, where there was much criticism about this "press ban" as opposed to the little criticism over Macron's actions, which exposes the further hypocrisy by liberals.[15]

In a speech later in the campaign, Macron called the Le Pen voters/supporters "hateful cowards", "anti-France" and "true enemies", displaying his liberal values.[16]

About nine gigabytes of data of emails from the campaign of French presidential candidate Emmanuel Macron were posted online[17][18] by a user called EMLEAKS to Pastebin on Friday the fifth of May. The En Marche! Movement has been the victim of a massive and co-ordinated hack this evening which has given rise to the diffusion on social media of various internal information." the statement said.[19]

French president

Macron's first phone call as president-elect was to Angela Merkel.[20] He assumed office on May 14, 2017,[21] and immediately set to lobbying additional EU centralization.[22] Despite inviting U.S. climate scientists to move to France during the campaign, none had accepted his request by his early presidency.[23] He received criticism for attempting to control media coverage over his administration.[24]

Macron chose an authoritarian and elitist governing style, and his administration's officials stated he would not hold question-answer press conferences because his thinking was too "complex" for journalists to understand.[25]
