French President Emmanuel Macron announced that he is ready to participate in the presidential elections this spring, but so far he is not going to nominate himself. The timing is not quite right, the politician explained. “I must now take action to combat the pandemic,” Macron told Le Parisien newspaper.

The elections in France will be held in two stages: April 10 and 24. Applicants for the post of head of state can nominate themselves before the beginning of March. "It is very good for the nation that there are women candidates," Macron shared his thoughts. And called for the fight against violence against women. "This is a matter not only of women themselves, but of the whole society," the politician emphasized.

Recall that Marine Le Pen, Valerie Pécresse and Anne Hidalgo have already announced their desire to participate in the presidential elections in France.
