WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — Emmanuel Macron is going to lead a weak, divided France facing economic crisis, unassimilated mass immigration and a growing terrorist threat that his predecessors had failed to resolve, former European Union consultant Paolo von Schirach told Sputnik.
“Macron’s victory is… no guarantee that a weakened France will regain the enthusiasm… to get out of the swamp of low growth and high unemployment,’” Schirach, president of the Global Policy Institute and Professor of International Economics at BAU International University, said.
Macron must also tackle the unresolved issue of millions of mostly Muslim non-assimilated immigrants who have become in many instances the breeding mix for radicalized youth who engage in acts of terror, Schirach warned.
“The unknown here is whether this new — and completely untested — young president (the youngest leader of France since Napoleon) will be able to galvanize his country,” Schirach stated.
