France's National Assembly approved a no-confidence vote against Prime Minister Michel Barnier, signaling a significant blow to President Macron's political stability and control.
Barnier's efforts to maintain a pro-business agenda and address deficit concerns failed amid a minority coalition riven by infighting and a lack of parliamentary support.
By invoking the '49.3' constitutional provision to force a bill, Barnier took a risky gambit that ultimately led to his downfall and highlighted weaknesses in Macron's administration.
The political crisis for Macron intensified with Barnier’s ousting, revealing deepening challenges to the president’s authority and a precarious situation for his government.
