France’s new Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu resigned after less than a month in office and less than 24 hours after naming a new government that prompted a key coalition ally to withdraw support. The move plunged the country further into political crisis and left President Emmanuel Macron with few options. Eléonore Caroit, a member of President Emmanuel Macron’s Renaissance party and an MP for French citizens living abroad, tells FRANCE 24 that she does not support a call for snap elections. “Do I think it’s going to be any different if we call for elections today? I’m afraid it won’t be radically different,” she notes. “What we’re seeing is that we have a divided country with a divided representation, and it is our duty as MPs to actually find a way [forward].”
