French President Emmanuel Macron continues to reshuffle his government.

On Wednesday, Gabriel Attal became the new prime minister and on Thursday, Stéphane Séjourné was appointed as the new foreign minister. 38-year-old Séjourné, who is party leader of Macron’s Renaissance party, takes over from Catherine Colonna.

However, there will be no changes in other key positions in the government, including Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin and Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire keeping their posts.
