Following a no-confidence vote, French PM Michel Barnier resigned, the first such ousting since 1962. President Macron now faces pressure to appoint a new prime minister amidst a deeply divided parliament and growing economic concerns over the national deficit. Barnier's government was short-lived as political alliances shifted, leading to calls for Macron's resignation. Analysts predict ongoing political instability and fiscal challenges as France prepares for future governance amid rising debt concerns.
