French media on October 11 focused overwhelmingly on the political crisis following President Macron's renomination of Sébastien Lecornu as Prime Minister, just days after his resignation. Morning reports detailed immediate threats of censure from opposition parties and the challenges Lecornu faced in forming a government. Key figures, such as Bruno Retailleau, refused to participate, highlighting internal divisions within Les Républicains.
By early afternoon, Les Républicains officially announced they would not join the government but would support legislation "text by text." This decision intensified the focus on Lecornu's struggle to secure a working majority. Concurrently, reports emerged of Emmanuel Macron's upcoming visit to Egypt to support the Gaza ceasefire agreement, shifting some attention to international diplomacy.
