France: Consultations continue pending appointment of Prime Minister

France Consultations continue pending appointment of Prime Minister

France still does not have a new Prime Minister, 50 days after the legislative elections. President Macron wrapped up his first round of party consultations on Monday, August 26, before a probable second round starting on Tuesday. In the morning, he received the leaders of the National Rally, Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella. The uncertainty has hardly cleared, but the possibility of a Lucie Castets government seems to be fading.
