The announcement of France’s new Prime Minister, succeeding Michel Barnier, has been delayed to December 13, as confirmed by the Elysée. Emmanuel Macron is finalizing consultations before revealing the name, while the Socialist Party has warned against any member joining a non-left government. Potential candidates include François Bayrou, Bernard Cazeneuve, and Roland Lescure, among others. The National Rally (RN) party has expressed opposition to Lescure’s potential nomination through social media.
