French President Emmanuel Macron is likely to nominate a new prime minister on Thursday, an unnamed government source told AFP.
The nomination will likely come when Macron returns home in the evening hours after a day trip to Poland, the source told the French news agency on Wednesday evening.
Macron is in a desperate search for a new prime minister after Michel Barnier’s government was ousted in a no-confidence vote in the National Assembly last week, having only been in power for three months.
It is not expected that the parties will form a new coalition government, but that they will cooperate to prevent the country from having to go through another government crisis.
