Editorial: Le Monde

• The Socialist Party (PS) achieved a significant victory by forcing Emmanuel Macron to back down on pension reform.
• The suspension of the move to 64 years, due to the pressure from PS, fulfills the triple requirement that the party had set.
• The suspension of the reform until January 1, 2028 will allow 3.5 million people to anticipate their retirement.
• The PS still faces challenges in demonstrating that what was achieved is a real step forward and how the cost of the suspension will be financed.

Conclusion: The PS won a major battle by questioning the pension reform, but there is still much to prove and fight for in the future.
