France’s Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu, who has resigned but is in charge of negotiations, believes that new elections are unlikely as a way out of the government crisis.

Next he wants to talk to the “Republican Left” about what “concessions” are necessary to get their support. (APA, October 8, 2025)
