France Faces Political Turmoil as Prime Minister Resigns Hours After Naming Government

In a shocking turn of events, French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu has resigned less than 24 hours after unveiling his cabinet, plunging the nation deeper into political chaos. This unprecedented turmoil comes as President Macron grapples with a crumbling administration and a growing crisis that has led to heightened tensions in the stock market, with French bond yields spiking and stocks falling significantly. The resignation has sparked renewed calls for national elections from the far-right, leaving Macron with limited options and increasing pressure to resolve the political deadlock. Analysts warn that this ongoing instability could serve as a dire warning to global markets, as the political landscape in France becomes increasingly unpredictable.
