 Elected President

Bruno Retailleau

The 2025 The Republicans leadership election was held on 17–18 May following the resignation of Éric Ciotti in the aftermath of the 2024 The Republicans alliance crisis.[1] As only two candidates have registered to run, no second round is scheduled.

Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau, who placed second in the previous leadership election in 2022, will face off against president of the Republican Right group in the National Assembly Laurent Wauquiez, who previously led the party from 2017 to 2019.[2][3]
