Shortly after his re-election on Sunday, French President Emmanuel Macron said that the concerns of those who had abstained from voting, or picked opposition candidate Marine Le Pen, needed to be addressed.

Macron told the crowd of supporters gathered by the Eiffel Tower on Sunday evening that those who had voted for him in order to block Le Pen from winning the presidency or had abstained from voting completely, should be acknowledged.

"I also think of all our compatriots who abstained from voting. Their silence signified a refusal to choose, to which we must also respond," he said.

Macron defeated his far-right rival Marine Le Pen on Sunday by a comfortable margin, securing a second term and heading off what would have been a political earthquake.
