PARIS (Reuters) -The French presidency announced Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu's new cabinet line-up on Sunday, reappointing Roland Lescure, a close ally of Emmanuel Macron, as finance minister.
Lecornu's last government lasted just 14 hours. Lescure takes over the finance ministry at a time the government is under intense pressure to steer a budget for 2026 through a deeply divided parliament.
