François Bayrou named French Premier: fresh administration during political instability
Macron declared his selection of MoDem head François Bayrou for the role of the fresh Prime Minister of France.
His job will involve attempting to establish a new administration.
Bayrou — a Macron advocate and chief of the center-leaning party — will be obliged to secure budget passage through a fractured legislature. Here, Macron encounters outright resistance from both the left-wing and extreme right-wing groups following a parliamentary vote of no confidence.
