PARIS - French President Emmanuel Macron, whose plans to reform the pension system have run into fierce public opposition, will forego a special presidential pension payout when he eventually steps down, his office said on Sunday.
Under a law dating back to 1955, France’s presidents are entitled to draw a pension of about 6,000 euros per month before tax as soon as they leave office. The 42-year-old president will be years away from France’s legal retirement age of 62 when he leaves office even he serves two full five-year terms.
Speaking on Saturday during a visit to Ivory Coast, Macron called on transport unions to suspend strikes during the Christmas holidays to avoid disrupting travel for families.
