Macron has been a Telegram user since the early days of his first presidential campaign

Odaily News Macron has been a Telegram user since the early days of his first presidential campaign. Nearly a decade later, the app is still widely used by cabinet members and political officials at all levels and parties, especially in pro-Macron circles. French security services have tried to limit the use of Telegram in official circles for confidentiality reasons. But Macron's own party, Ennahda, still uses a Telegram channel to send public communications to journalists via a private channel, a practice also adopted by the French Ministry of the Interior and the National Assembly. In addition, Macron has a public channel to share statements and breaking news, with more than 30,000 subscribers. (Politico)
