France is bracing for a significant political upheaval as the far-right and left-wing forces unite in a historic no-confidence vote aimed at toppling Prime Minister Michel Barnier's government. This move, triggered by budget disputes, could mark the first time a French government has been ousted in such a manner in over six decades.
President Emmanuel Macron, despite facing mounting calls for his resignation, has affirmed his intention to complete his term until 2027. However, Macron will need to appoint a new prime minister following his party's losses in July's legislative elections.
