After a European tour of almost a week which took him from Brussels to Lisbon, via Munich and Madrid, Emmanuel Macron returned to Paris on Thursday evening.

And on his desk, the files piled up.

Everything will now accelerate for the Head of State and his Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne.

After a European Council, the G7, a NATO summit and a United Nations conference on the oceans, Emmanuel Macron is back at the Elysée.

During her absence, Elisabeth Borne had multiplied the consultations, receiving one by one the various representatives of the country's political forces.

This Friday, the Prime Minister should go to the Palace to report on her exchanges with the Head of State.

Addressing the issue of redesign

It is for the executive couple to take stock of any agreements with this or that party on the reforms to come.

But above all to address the question of the redesign.

"It's for the beginning of next week", believes a ministerial adviser.

Three ministers must be replaced because of defeat in the legislative elections.

And one because of his election as President of the Assembly: Yaël Braun-Pivet.

A studious weekend for Macron

The government team must be completed with delegate ministers and secretaries of state.

And then there remain two cases on which it is necessary to arbitrate: Damien Abad and Chysoula Zacharopoulou, both accused of rape.

This is the program of Emmanuel Macron and his Prime Minister.

After the European tour, the weekend will therefore be studious for the Head of State.
