French President Macron consults party leaders on Aug 23 to form government after inconclusive legislative elections.
French President Emmanuel Macron is set to hold consultations with party leaders on August 23 in a bid to form a government after the recent legislative elections resulted in no clear majority in the lower-house National Assembly. Macron aims to assemble a broad coalition in the fractured parliament to address France's political situation. This consultation follows Macron's recent declaration that he would seek to name a new prime minister after the Paris Olympics. The government of Macron allies, led by Prime Minister Gabriel Attal, has been operating in a caretaker capacity.
