Le Pen Calls Macron's No-Change Cabinet 'Pathetic; Can France PM Lecornu Survive?

French President Emmanuel Macron’s decision to appoint a broadly unchanged cabinet sparked an immediate backlash from opposition parties, undermining Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu’s chances of surviving a make-or-break week in parliament. Far-right leader Marine Le Pen said in a social media post that Macron’s continuity was “pathetic” and leaves her National Rally party “speechless.” Lecornu, who governs without a majority in the National Assembly, faces the same intractable problem that sunk the premierships of his two predecessors: passing a budget through a fractured parliament that will likely include unpopular spending cuts and tax increases needed to rein in the largest deficit in the euro area.
