France’s re-appointed prime minister Lecornu calls for calm amid political chaos

L’HAY-LES-ROSES, France: France’s newly re-appointed prime minister acknowledged Saturday that there weren’t "a lot of candidates" for his job — and that he might not last long in the post given the country’s deep political divides. Sebastien Lecornu, renamed by President Emmanuel Macron late Friday after a week of political chaos, called for calm and for the support of political parties to produce a budget for the European Union’s No. 2 economy before looming deadlines. His appointment is seen as Macron’s last chance to reinvigorate his second term, which runs until 2027.
