Emmanuel Macron of France vows new start



  

   New France President, Emmanuel Macron, has promised to restore France's global standing, as he was officially inaugurated as the country's youngest president at the age of 39.

   Speaking after his elaborate inauguration ceremony today, Macron said his mandate will give the French back the confidence to believe in themselves.
   He also vowed to see the EU reformed and relaunched during his time in office.
Macron, who takes over from François Hollande, was proclaimed France's new president a week after his resounding victory over the National Front's Marine le Pen, with 66% of the vote in the run-off poll.
   The former investment banker, who had never contested an election before and only formed his centrist political movement a year ago, has vowed to shake up the country's political order and reinvigorate its economy.
