French President Emmanuel Macron has appointed Michel Barnier as France’s new prime minister following pressure from all political groups. Barnier, a conservative who previously served as the chief EU negotiator for Brexit, will now face a no-confidence vote in the National Assembly. The current assembly is divided among the left-wing coalition, Macron’s centrist group, and the far-right National Rally. Macron aims to secure a broad and stable majority with Barnier’s appointment. The president’s choice of prime minister is crucial for the success of his government’s policies. The situation is still developing, and updates will be provided as the story unfolds.
