Macron's government crisis: Baeyouus New Ministerial Council in the shadow of mourning

Mayotte, Frankreich - France faces a political change because President Emmanuel Macron has formed the new government under Prime Minister François Bayrou. In a highly expected announcement, Elisabeth Borne and Manuel Valls, both former prime minister, were appointed in key positions. Borne takes over the Ministry of Education, while Valls will be responsible for the overseas areas. Gérald Darmanin, the former Minister of the Interior, becomes the new Minister of Justice, as the Elysée-Palast confirmed on Monday, such as Today.at reported .

The announcement of the new cabinet members comes at a critical time for France that suffers from a political crisis. The resignation of the former Prime Minister Michel Barnier, who ruled the shortest at the top, led to a standstill that was tightened by the recent conflicts in parliament. Bayrou, which was only appointed on December 13, must now ensure that his government will survive a vote of trust and that the budget will be approved for the next year. In the meantime, the French government focuses on the first day of grief for the victims of a cyclone on Mayotte, one of the poorest overseas regions of France, where at least 35 people were killed, such as yahoo news reported .

Macron and Bayrou are faced with the challenge of creating a stable government, while they have to counteract the opposition's criticism, especially from the ranks of the extreme right and left. The political situation has been tense in the past few months, but the appointment of experienced politicians could be seen as an attempt to strengthen the government's peat power. When asked about the future of the government, Bayrou replied optimistically that he wanted to present a government that was standing before Christmas. However, analysts warn of a possible short -livedness of his term, while Sarkozy and Le Pen speak of an early presidential election. If his government does not gain the trust of the legislative, the French Parliament could once again plunge into political uncertainty.
