French President Emmanuel Macron announced in a TV interview on Tuesday that the country's centrist caretaker government will remain in place until the end of the Olympic Games in mid-August to prevent disorder. This decision follows the selection of civil servant Lucie Castets as the prime minister by the leftist coalition that secured the most votes in the recent parliamentary elections.
Macron emphasized that the current caretaker government will continue to manage current affairs during the Olympics, which conclude on August 11. He cited the need to avoid disruptions and maintain stability until mid-August due to the absence of a dominant political bloc in power following the parliamentary elections.
