Calling MoDem Party Leaders, Macron Will Announce French PM Today?

JAKARTA - MoDem Party leader Franco Bayrou fulfilled French President Emmanuel Macron's call this morning. Bayrou is one of the figures in France's new prime ministerial exchange (PM).

A source familiar with this told AFP, Friday, December 13.

The seat of French PM is known to be vacant after Michel Barnier was ousted by parliament by motion. Since then, the deadlock has been related to the name of the PM filler for days.

Until now, Macron is still unknown whether to announce Bayrou as the new PM.

Whoever is appointed French 6th PM in office of the Macron government will hold the position for three months.

The new PM in office will be directly faced with the preparation of the budget that will be reviewed until it is ratified by parliament.
