Macron presented his vision for a new European order and security

 French President Emmanuel Macron presented the strategy of France during its EU presidency from the podium in Strasbourg. He was applauded for his efforts to strengthen the autonomy of the European Union and strengthen cooperation in Europe, but was criticized for using the European Parliament's rostrum in his campaign to re-elect France's president, Le Monde reported.

Above all, Macron called on Europeans to be brave so that the EU can establish itself as a "force of the future" and a "sovereign" so that it does not depend on other world powers. He called on Europe to create a "new security order" with NATO in the face of Russia and called for an "honest and demanding dialogue" with Russia.

 "The coming weeks should help us implement the European proposal to build a new order of security and stability. "We need to create it among Europeans, then share it with our NATO allies, and then offer it for negotiations with Russia," Macron said.

Ever since his election as French President in 2017, Emmanuel Macron has been at the helm of the European Union as opposed to nationalists and populists. He says his priority is to protect the rule of law, it is a "treasure", and "nations far from it must be convinced of this". And to strengthen the rule of law, Macron wants to include the right to abortion and the right to protect the environment in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.

 Although Macron himself has not yet announced his candidacy for the upcoming presidential election in France, his opponents have not failed to accuse him of running his own election campaign. Green Representative Yannick Jado said: "You will go down in history as president of climate inaction, preferring to procrastinate rather than call for joint mobilization." Others criticized Macron for his actions on immigration, for his broken promises about the climate, writes Le Monde.
