00:00The mandate you democratically gave me is a five-year mandate, and I will carry it out

00:06fully until the end.

00:08I will never take the blame for the lack of responsibility of others, and notably lawmakers

00:13who choose, knowingly, to bring down the budget and the government of France a few days before

00:18Christmas.

00:21We can't allow ourselves to be divided or to do nothing.

00:24That's why I'll name a prime minister in the coming days.

00:27I will ask them to form a government in the general interest, representing all the political

00:32parties who can participate in it, or at least who agree not to bring it down.

00:41The prime minister will lead consultations and will form a tight government in your service.

00:46Its priority will be the budget.

00:47A special law will be tabled in Parliament before the middle of December, and this temporary

00:52law will, as our constitution stipulates, allow the continuity of our public services

00:57and the life of the country.
