French PM Attal: I will hand my resignation on Monday morning
Gabriel Attal, French Prime Minister and French presidential majority group "Ensemble pour la Republique" candidate, delivers a speech after partial results in the second round of the early French parliamentary elections, at Hotel Matignon in Paris in Par
PARIS (Reuters) - French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal said on Sunday he will hand his resignation to President Emmanuel Macron on Monday morning, adding he will carry out his functions as long as required.
Attal made the comments after France's left-wing New Popular Front coalition won the most seats in the second voting round of parliamentary elections, leading pollsters said on Sunday, putting them on track for an unexpected win over the far right National Rally (RN) party but short of an absolute majority in parliament.
