After having maintained a semblance of suspense, the candidacy of Emmanuel Macron no longer makes any mystery.
Everything suggests that the declaration of candidacy of the Head of State should take place this week, before or during the International Agricultural Show, Saturday February 26.
Unless the situation degenerates in Ukraine, which could then reshuffle the cards and postpone the president's announcement.

An expanded executive office on Monday evening
As proof, party and campaign employees met yesterday afternoon to mark the entry into the last fifty days before the first round.
It was a question of welding the teams before the declaration of candidacy of Emmanuel Macron.
And if another sign was needed that it is now only a matter of day: all the leaders of the presidential majority are invited tomorrow evening to an enlarged executive office.
Executives from La République en Marche but also François Bayrou from Modem, or even Edouard Philippe from Horizon, will attend this meeting physically or by videoconference.

A "weapon-watchful spirit"
And, in order to show a certain unity behind the Head of State, many ministers will also be present, including the first of them: Jean Castex.
This evening will be held "in an armed spirit" summarizes a heavyweight of the macronie.
Something to sharpen the knives one last time before candidate Macron enters the battle.
