Political Turmoil as France Appoints New Government Under Prime Minister Lecornu

France has unveiled a new government led by Prime Minister Lecornu amidst significant political turmoil and doubts about its stability. The cabinet includes Macron loyalist Roland Lescure, who has been appointed as the new finance minister in an effort to address pressing budget issues. The Prime Minister faces mounting pressure from opposition parties, particularly the French Socialists, who threaten to destabilize the government further. Despite the challenges ahead, Lecornu has committed to allowing Parliament to decide on budget proposals rather than resorting to constitutional powers, signaling a preference for compromise in a landscape marked by political deadlock.
