French Government Faces Collapse Amid No-Confidence Vote

France is facing a political crisis as Marine Le Pen's far-right National Rally party pushes for a no-confidence vote against Prime Minister Michel Barnier's government, which could lead to its collapse. Le Pen's ultimate goal appears to be forcing President Emmanuel Macron to resign, capitalizing on the turmoil to strengthen her position. Despite concessions from Barnier, Le Pen's demands have been inconsistent, and her actions have intensified calls for Macron's resignation, especially among National Rally supporters and some left-wing lawmakers.
