On December 4, the French National Assembly will examine two no-confidence motions against Prime Minister Michel Barnier’s government. The first motion, backed by the Nouveau Front populaire, has significant support and will be debated first. If rejected, the second motion from the Rassemblement national will follow. Barnier emphasized the importance of national interest in a recent interview, while opposition leaders criticized his statements. President Emmanuel Macron dismissed the likelihood of a successful no-confidence vote, condemning the cynicism of the Rassemblement national.
