PARIS (Reuters) -French President Emmanuel Macron will name a new prime minister in the next 48 hours, the Elysee palace said in a statement on Wednesday.
Macron thanked outgoing Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu for his work over the past 48 hours and acknowledged his conclusions that a majority of lawmakers oppose dissolving parliament, that a platform for stability exists, and that a path to adopt a budget by December-end is possible, the French presidency added
