Macron urges 'intelligent compromise' over immigration legislation
Briefly

"I am in favour of results and pragmatism," Macron said on a visit to Brussels. He called for an 'intelligent compromise' in the name of 'the general interest.' "Our country needs to improve its rules to better fight against illegal immigration, traffickers, against those who take advantage of the world's misery and who weaken our system by putting too much pressure on it," he added.
"It would not be serious to subject a sensitive text to article 49.3 when the opposition has done everything to ensure there is no debate," Macron said. He criticized the Republicans and the Socialists for joining forces with hard-left France Unbowed and far-right Rassemblement National to vote down the draft law.
