Macron relies on Bayrou: New government is supposed to save France!
France is on the edge of the abyss! President Emmanuel Macron introduced a new government team under the direction of François Bayrou - his fourth prime minister in just one year! In the middle of a political crisis and urgent demands of the financial markets to reduce the country's debt, the new government is a desperate attempt to regain control.
The nominations were announced by Macron's head of the cabinet, Alexis Kohler. Bayrou, which was appointed on December 13, took almost ten days to put together a team that can master the challenges. Time is forced, because the government has to work on a budget law for 2025 after the previous prime minister Michel Barnier has been overthrown due to resistance in parliament.
a strong team for a critical mission
The new government relies on experienced heads: Eric Lombard, 66, the head of the caisse of the dépôts, becomes finance minister and will work as a budget minister alongside Amélie de Montchalin. The conservative Bruno Retailleau remains interior minister, while Jean-Noël Barrot and Sébastien Lecornu keep their offices as Minister of Foreign and Defense. Elisabeth Borne, who resigned as Prime Minister in January, takes over the Ministry of Education, and former Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin will lead the Ministry of Justice.
The inclusion of two former prime minister shows Macron's endeavor to create a stable government that does not suffer the same fate as Barnier. Bayrous's top priority is to ensure that his government survives a possible distrust of no confidence and adopt a cost -saving budget for 2025.
a country in mourning and uncertainty
The announcement of the new government fell together with a mourning day for the victims of the cyclone in the Indian Ocean archipelago Mayotte, the poorest overseas area in France. While the country mourns the victim, the new government faces the challenge of overcoming political tensions and regaining the trust of the citizens.
France has been in a political dead end since Macron's risky step with new elections. The voters have left a fragmented parliament that is trapped between three rival blocks. Will Bayrou manage to stabilize the government and enforce the urgently needed reforms? The clock ticks and the challenges are huge!
