French President Emmanuel Macron will announce a new prime minister today, replacing the resigned Michel Barnier.
It should be noted that French President Macron has ordered the current Prime Minister Michel Barnier to continue working until a new government is appointed.
French Prime Minister Michel Barnier was facing a no-confidence motion and the prime minister had submitted his resignation in a meeting with President Macron.
Prime Minister Barnier’s minority coalition government came to an end after just three months, the shortest tenure of any government in French history.
