French Prime Minister Michel Barnier has been ousted in a no-confidence vote just three months into his term, marking a significant development in French politics. The vote, which saw 331 out of 577 lawmakers voting against Barnier's government, has plunged the country into deeper political instability.
This historic event makes Barnier the first French prime minister to be defeated in a no-confidence motion since 1962, and he is now set to become France's shortest-serving prime minister in history. Following the vote, Barnier's cabinet is expected to serve in a caretaker capacity until French President Emmanuel Macron appoints new leadership.
