Au nom de la plus ancienne internationale des partis politiques, le président de l’Internationale libérale Dr. Juli Minoves a célébré l’élection d’Emmanuel Macron en tant que président de la République française. Dr Minoves a déclaré:
Macron s'affirme comme leader d'une Europe unie, il a balayé les forces du repli et s'appuie sur une longue tradition française de modernité.
LI President welcomed the election of Mr Macron saying:
He has campaigned on a liberal democratic platform and has won a victory for a forward looking France confident and ready to tackle the challenges ahead.
ALDE Party President and LI President of Honour Hans van Baalen MEP celebrated that
the French citizens have favoured a centrist progressive liberal candidate who will work to guarantee an open-minded and modern French Republic. This is Europe’s time to shine standing up for our values of freedom, democracy, tolerance and cooperation. I look forward to cooperating with Emmanuel Macron and our seven ALDE Heads of Government in the European Council, for a stronger and united Europe.
The President of the French Republic is a Co-prince of the Principality of Andorra – the hosting nation of the upcoming LI Congress – where next week Liberal International will celebrate both its 70th Anniversary and the election of Emmanuel Macron, which LI President earlier branded “a victory for liberal values.”
