Seeking to end political deadlock, France unveils new government

France unveiled its new government on Monday, seeking an end to weeks of political uncertainty following the ouster of former Prime Minister Michel Barnier and his Cabinet earlier this month.

The new 39-member Cabinet, announced by President Emmanuel Macron's Chief of Staff Alexis Kohler from the Elysee Palace, features a blend of seasoned politicians and unexpected appointments in key roles.

Bruno Retailleau kept his post as interior minister, maintaining oversight over national security.
