Macron Struggles to Find Suitable Candidate for Prime Minister

World

After French Prime Minister Michel Barnier was ousted through a vote of no confidence on December 4, Macron was expected to announce a new prime minister. However, due to the uncertainty in French politics following the recent legislative elections, Macron did not name his successor and missed the set 48-hour deadline.

The president traveled to Poland on Thursday but shortened his visit. He is trying to finalize the process of appointing a new prime minister. It is highly likely that the prime minister will be appointed today.

One of the candidates is politician François Bayrou, but his candidacy has sparked objections from the left wing and is also rejected by former President Nicolas Sarkozy from the right wing. Other contenders include former Socialist Prime Minister Bernard Cazeneuve, Defense Minister, and former Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian.

The French public is tired of the political crisis and is hoping for a new government with fresh energy and prospective changes.
