France's Macron to name new prime minister on Friday, Elysee says

French President Emmanuel Macron has postponed the nomination of a new prime minister until Friday morning, his office said on Thursday, APA reports citing Reuters.

Macron said two days ago he wanted to name a new head of government within 48 hours.

The new team is due to replace the one led by Michel Barnier, who resigned last week after far-right and leftist lawmakers voted to topple his government, plunging France into its second major political crisis in six months.
