French President Emmanuel Macron says he will retire from politics after his presidential term ends in 2027.

He said this in a conversation with students of the French-Cypriot school in Nicosia, writes Le Figaro.

"I wasnʼt involved in politics before and I wonʼt be involved in politics after this," he stated in the debate.

Macron also admitted that the most difficult thing in the last period of his two five-year terms was defending his achievements while at the same time having the energy to correct what "was not done well".

  • Macron has been President of France since 2017 and was re-elected for a second term in 2022. Before becoming president, he was Minister of Economy, Industry and Digital Affairs.
