OREANDA-NEWS Emmanuel Macron was re-elected for a second presidential term in France. According to the results of processing 100% of ballots, 58.2% of voters voted for him. For Marine Le Pen – 41.6%.

After his victory, Macron said that his second term would be turbulent, but historic for France. The politician also plans to fight for social justice and gender equality. France should show clarity of its position and become strong in all areas against the background of the crisis in Ukraine, the head of state believes.

Le Pen called Macron a few hours before processing 100% of the ballots and admitted defeat. During a speech to supporters in the Ermenonville pavilion, however, she noted that the struggle is not limited to the presidential elections alone — elections to the National Assembly, the lower house of the French parliament, will be held in June.

Macron celebrated his victory at a rally on the Champ de Mars in Paris. The re-elected head of state thanked the voters who voted not for him personally, but against Le Pen's coming to power. Addressing his supporters, Macron also said that they were in favor of French independence.
