On December 13, 2024, French President Emmanuel Macron appointed 73-year-old centrist politician François Bayrou as the new Prime Minister of France. Bayrou, the mayor of Pau and leader of the Democratic Movement (MoDem), replaces Michel Barnier, who resigned after a no-confidence vote by far-right and leftist lawmakers that toppled the government. Bayrou is tasked with forming a new government and drafting a new budget for 2025, aiming to stabilize the political landscape and secure support for the government's agenda.
