A spokesperson for France's outgoing government says President Emmanuel Macron is seeking a political deal that would allow him to both name a new prime minister and “guarantee the stability of the country.

After Prime Minister Michel Barnier lost a no-confidence vote in Parliament, President Emmanuel Macron castigated his political opposition for “choosing disorder” and said he would not resign.

French President Emmanuel Macron searched on Thursday for a new prime minister to replace Michel Barnier, who officially resigned a day after opposition lawmakers voted to topple his government.

With the fall of the Barnier government, Emmanuel Macron gave a short televised address to the French public – accepting responsibility for calling a snap election

There is little hope for a quick resolution to the governmental crisis as both left- and right-leaning parties dig in their heels.
