Sébastien Lecornu has been reappointed as Prime Minister of France by President Emmanuel Macron, just four days after his resignation. This unexpected move follows a week of political turmoil, with Lecornu now tasked with forming a government and presenting next year's budget to parliament by Monday. France's public debt is nearly 114% of GDP, and the budget deficit is projected at 5.4% of GDP. Lecornu, a loyal ally of Macron, faces significant challenges, including a lack of majority support in the National Assembly and potential opposition from various political factions. His reappointment has drawn criticism, with opposition leaders labeling it a 'bad joke' and indicating plans for a vote of no confidence. Lecornu's ability to navigate these political waters will be crucial as he attempts to stabilize the government and address pressing economic issues.
