French President Emmanuel Macron has appointed 34-year-old Education Minister Gabriel Attal as the country's new prime minister.
Attal is set to be the youngest individual to hold the position since the establishment of the French Fifth Republic in 1958 to serve in this role. This appointment aims to invigorate Macron's government, which has been facing challenges in public approval.
Attal, a prominent figure in Macron's Renaissance Party, has previously served as the minister of education and national youth. Macron expressed confidence in Attal's energy and commitment, emphasizing the minister's potential to contribute to the government's agenda.
Attal's appointment is seen as a strategic move to bring fresh leadership to the government, with surveys indicating his popularity among the French public. The reshuffle precedes anticipated political challenges, including the European elections scheduled for June 9. Macron's decision signals a response to the growing support for the far-right led by Marine Le Pen. (ILKHA)
