Head of France
's armed forces, Pierre de Villiers, resigned on Wednesday days after a public dispute with
president Emmanuel Macron over proposed defense budget cuts, Reuters reported citing a
statement from his office.
In the statement, de Villiers said he had sought to maintain a French defense force able to do an increasingly difficult job within the financial constraints imposed on it.
"In the current circumstances I see myself as no longer able to guarantee the robust defense force I believe is necessary to guarantee the protection of France and the French people, today and tomorrow, and to sustain the aims of our country," he said.
He said that as a result he had tendered his resignation to Macron and that it had been accepted.
