PARIS (Reuters) - French President Emmanuel Macron will convene all political parties willing to compromise with a view to forming a government on Tuesday at 1300 GMT, the Elysee presidential palace said in Monday.

A source close to Macron said neither the far-right National Rally party nor the left wing France Unbowed party wanted to be invited.
