For in-depth analysis and a deeper perspective on France’s new prime minister, Michel Barnier, the unprecedented political crisis, and looming economic crisis, threatening the country’s very fabric, and the enormous challenges that lie ahead for a fractious parliament that reflects France’s volatile political landscape, FRANCE 24’s Nadia Massih welcomes Dr. Andrew Smith, Historian of modern France and Lecturer in Liberal Arts at Queen Mary University of London. President Emmanuel Macron named Michel Barnier as France’s new prime minister, hoping the Brexit negotiator and veteran conservative can work with the country’s bitterly divided legislature to end political turmoil that has roiled Macron’s presidency. Barnier has a daunting task ahead of him and could quickly face possible attempts in parliament to topple the new government he will put together and lead.
