French Prime Minister François Bayrou is set to resign on Tuesday morning, following the collapse of his government after a failed confidence vote in the National Assembly.
Bayrou’s government was defeated by 364 votes to 194, a result that obliges him to formally submit his resignation to President Emmanuel Macron, who will then be responsible for appointing a new prime minister tasked with forming a government.
The vote marks a major political setback for Bayrou, whose administration was unable to secure sufficient support within parliament. Following the result, Bayrou left the National Assembly without making any public comment.
According to French media reports, Bayrou is expected to present his resignation to Macron on Tuesday morning. The president will then begin the process of selecting a successor capable of navigating the political divisions that brought down the government.
