Lecornu was appointed on September 9 and faced criticism from opposition parties and the right after unveiling his cabinet on Sunday evening—his third government in the country within a year, according to Agence France-Presse.

Several parties in the National Assembly strongly criticized Lecornu’s cabinet, which showed little change from the previous Bairo government, and threatened to reject it in a vote. – (Agencies)
