Proposed by Prime Minister François Bayrou to the Head of State, this list is made up of 35 ministers, some of whose names were surprising during of the announcement. Indeed, it has several returnees, starting with Manuel Valls, but also Elisabeth Borne and Gérald Darmanin.

It is mainly an honorary dimension, which allows you to be among the first in the protocol order. “The scope of such a title is purely ceremonial,” constitutionalist Didier Maus confirmed to AFP in 2017. This title is also perceived as a form of recognition, “either of their past, or of their loyalty, or of their ability to negotiate,” he said.
