The former Prime Minister, new support for Emmanuel Macron, should be invested by the presidential majority in the 5th constituency of French people living abroad. A territory which notably includes… Monaco.
What if Manuel Valls made his return to the French political scene in… Monaco? It is very likely. According to information from Figaro, the former Socialist Prime Minister, now a fervent supporter of Emmanuel Macron, should be invested by the presidential majority for the next legislative elections in the 5th constituency of French people living abroad.
This constituency includes Spain, Portugal… but also the Principality of Monaco.
“Very likely and very possible.”
In case of victory, the former socialist could return to the National Assembly. In 2017, he was re-elected deputy for the first constituency of Essonne before leaving his seat, a year and a half later in October 2018 to then stand for municipal elections in Barcelona.
According to Le Parisien, citing internal sources at LREM, the candidacy of Manuel Valls in this constituency of French people living abroad is “very likely and very possible”.
