who will take over from Jean Castex?

Jean Castex would have written his resignation letter. The Prime Minister is preparing to leave Matignon, before an imminent reshuffle. “That’s what he says”confirms Anne Bourse, live from the Élysée Palace. “It remains to give it to Emmanuel Macron. For the moment, there has been no meeting here, between the two men. Emmanuel Macron, he has lunch at 1 p.m. with Charles Michel, the President of the European Council”reports the journalist.

After this lunch, “The appointment of a new Prime Minister can take place at any time. We repeat that with equal skills, Emmanuel Macron will choose a woman”, says Anne Bourse. He already said last week, “that he knew the name of his or her future Prime Minister. Several names are circulating, such as Elisabeth Borne, Catherine Vautrin or Audrey Azoulay, but we know that Emmanuel Macron likes to surprise”, summarizes Anne Bourse. In any case, it’s a well-kept secret, for whoever will embody “Emmanuel Macron’s Act II, particularly in view of the legislative elections”, continues the journalist. The new government should have about fifteen ministers.
