On Tuesday, Gabriel Attal achieved a historic milestone by becoming
France's youngest and first openly gay prime minister. President
Emmanuel Macron appointed the 34-year-old Education Minister to the
position in a strategic move aimed at revitalizing his presidency, as
announced by the Elysée in a press statement.
Following days of
speculation, Macron accepted the resignation of Elisabeth Borne, 62, on
Monday. Borne had served less than two years in office, paving the way
for an anticipated cabinet reshuffle designed to inject fresh energy
into the remaining three years of Macron's mandate.
Gabriel Attal
is now entrusted with the responsibility of forming a new government.
The move is considered vital for Macron, a two-time president ineligible
for the 2027 elections, as it is seen as a strategic measure to prevent
Marine Le Pen from ascending to the presidency.
