The French presidential election will be held in April.
French president Emmanuel Macron has confirmed that it is seeking an extension.
France will hold presidential elections next month, and Macron has been expected to formally confirm his candidacy for some time to come.
In a letter to the French, the incumbent President assured him that he was working to strengthen France and Europe in the face of accumulating crises.
Indeed, Macron has recently sought to take a leading role in international diplomacy. Among other things, he has had several bilateral talks with the Russian president Vladimir Putin with the situation in Ukraine, which Russia attacked a week ago.
