French Prime Minister Sebastian Lecorno resigns less than a month later

The Prime Minister in France, Sebastian Likorno, resigned less than a day after his government was unveiled.

“The circumstances have not been fulfilled for me to continue the Prime Minister,” Likorno said on Monday morning, and I criticized the political parties unwilling to reach compromise.

Elli’s Palace announced this after he met Lecorno from President Emmanuel Macron for an hour on Monday morning.

The shock step comes just 26 days after Licoreno was appointed Prime Minister after the collapse of the former Francois Payro government.

The parties in all fields in the National Assembly criticized the formation of the cabinet in Likorno, which has not changed largely from Bayro, and threatened to vote on it.

Many parties are now having to the early elections, with some inviting Macron to resign as well – although he always said that he would not decrease before the end of his term in 2027.

“The only wise thing that must be done now is to hold elections,” said Marin Le Pen from the right -wing National Rally (RN).

“The joke has continued for a long time. The French people are tired. Macron has put the country in a very difficult situation,” she added.

Likorno – the former Minister of Armed Forces and Macron – Fifth Prime Minister of France was in less than two years.

In his summary speech outside Hill de Matigon, the Prime Minister’s residence, which he occupied only for a period of less than a month, criticized Lecorno “party appetite” for the political factions, who said “all act as if they had an absolute majority.”

“I was ready to settle, but all parties wanted the other party to adopt its entire programs,” he said.

He added, “It will not need much to do this,” saying that the parties need to be more modest and “to throw some vanity aside.”

The French policy has been very unstable since July 2024, when the sudden parliamentary elections resulted in the suspended parliament.

This has made it difficult for any prime minister to obtain the necessary support to pass any bills.

The Bayro government was voted in September after the French Parliament refused to support its austerity budget, which aims to reduce government spending by 44 billion euros (51 billion dollars; 38 billion pounds).

France’s deficit reached 5.8 % of GDP in 2024 and its national debt is 114 % of its gross domestic product. This is the third highest general debt in the euro area after Greece and Italy, and equivalent to approximately 50,000 euros for every French citizen.

The stocks fell sharply to the exchange of Paris after the news of the resignation of Lecorno on Monday morning.
