Macron's Urgent Search for New Prime Minister Amid Government Resignation

French President Emmanuel Macron is urgently seeking a new prime minister following the resignation of Michel Barnier, who stepped down after a historic no-confidence vote in parliament. Barnier's government, which lasted only three months, was toppled due to his controversial 2025 budget plan that included austerity measures. This political upheaval has left France in a state of uncertainty, with Macron aiming to appoint a successor swiftly to stabilize the situation.

The no-confidence vote, supported by both far-right and left-wing lawmakers, marks the first successful ousting of a French prime minister since 1962.

The president is expected to announce his decision soon, as he prepares to host world leaders for the reopening of Notre-Dame Cathedral.
