Macron to Appoint New PM After French Government Collapse

French President Emmanuel Macron announced that he will appoint a new prime minister in the coming days after Michel Barnier was ousted in a no-confidence vote. Macron criticized the far-right and far-left parties for forming an "anti-republican front" and choosing "chaos" over governance. Despite calls for his resignation, Macron intends to complete his term until 2027 and emphasized the need for unity and rebuilding in France. Barnier will remain in a caretaker role until a successor is named.
