Hey fam! France just got a new crew at the top! 🎉 On Sunday, French Presidential Secretary General Emmanuel Moulin unveiled Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu’s new cabinet.
Here's who’s who:
- Elisabeth Borne: minister of national education 🎓
- Manuel Valls: overseas territories boss 🌍
- Bruno Le Maire: jumps from finance to defense 🔒
- Roland Lescure: Macron’s ally now finance minister 💰
- Jean-Noel Barrot (foreign affairs) and Bruno Retailleau (interior) hold their ground ✌️
The real challenge? Negotiating the 2026 budget in a divided parliament. Lecornu’s betting on compromise over confrontation — think skillful deal-making, not constitutional firepower 💼🤝.
With big decisions ahead, all eyes are on how this team balances fresh ideas with political reality. Stay tuned! 👀
