The Day Lecornu's Cabinet Was Unveiled Amidst Criticism

French media on October 5 largely focused on the formation of Sébastien Lecornu's government. Early reports highlighted pressure on Lecornu from the LR party, delaying the government's unveiling. Throughout the morning and early afternoon, discussions centered on Lecornu's "feuille de route," with Les Républicains and MoDem deliberating their participation. By the late afternoon, despite internal divisions, LR announced their participation, leading to the evening's unveiling of the first list of ministers. This announcement was met with immediate criticism from opposition parties and even some LR members, raising questions about the new government's stability.
