" and defended the presidential majority.
For its part, the executive indicated that instructions would be given "

determining role
" of the right "
between the voice of the extremes and the immobility of Emmanuel Macron
".
For this between-two-rounds, for which outgoing LR have already been eliminated, he called for giving "
no voice for the extremes
".
Calling thus, without formulating it explicitly, to refer to the majority.
