French President Emmanuel Macron appointed 73-year-old François Bairu by the new prime minister of the country. Bair, experienced politician and head of the Liberal Party Democratic Movement (MODEM), which is part of the pro -presidential coalition "Together", will replace Michel Barnier in this position.
François Bair is one of the key figures of French politics. In 1993-1997 he headed the Ministry of National Education of France, and in 2017-the Ministry of Justice. Bair was also nominated three times by Presidential Candidate - in 2002, 2007 and 2012, which emphasizes his many years of experience and influence on the political arena.
The appointment of François Bairus occurred after a record short term of work of the government of Michelle Barnier's minority, which last only 91 days. The new prime minister is expected to work on stabilizing the government coalition and resolving key political challenges.
This step can be an important stage in Emmanuel Macron's political strategy, because Bair is his reliable ally and has a reputation for an experienced and pragmatic policy.
