In France, after only three months, the government led by Michel Barnier falls.
In fact, the motion of no confidence presented by the left and also voted by the far right of Marine Le Pen passed the Assemblée Nationale. The 331 votes that sank the transalpine prime minister.
Barnier's is the first government to be ousted from office since 1962 (and the second in the entire French Fifth Republic), when the same fate befell Georges Pompidou's government.
President Emmanuel Macron, who has just returned from a state visit to Saudi Arabia, intends to appoint a successor soon.
However, La France Insoumise , through the president of the parliamentary group Mathilde Panot , has once again asked Macron to resign, calling for early presidential elections .
"The inevitable censure came for Barnier in three months and Macron will not last three years ," added the leader of the radical left-wing group Jean-Luc Mélenchon on X.
