Macron Appoints François Bayrou as Prime Minister to Navigate 2025 Budget as France's Fourth Leader This Year
Dec 15, 2024, 12:34 PM
French President Emmanuel Macron has appointed François Bayrou as the new Prime Minister, marking the fourth individual to hold the position this year. Bayrou, a veteran centrist politician and longtime ally of Macron, is tasked with forming a new government amid a politically fractured parliament. His predecessor, Michel Barnier, resigned earlier this month, leaving Bayrou to navigate the complexities of governance without a clear majority. As part of his initial actions, Bayrou has begun consultations with key political figures, including Yaël Braun-Pivet, the President of the National Assembly, and Gérard Larcher, the President of the Senate. He is also set to meet with far-right leaders Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella on Monday, as he seeks to build a coalition capable of passing the 2025 budget, a significant challenge given the current political climate. Bayrou has expressed intentions to create a compact government featuring experienced personalities, aiming to stabilize France’s political landscape after months of turmoil.
