The new Prime Minister of France, Sébastien Lecornu, who previously served as Defense Minister, said that the government 'will need to be creative and work with opposition parties' - after his predecessor was ousted. According to him, 'there will need to be policy changes.' Meanwhile, about 250 people were arrested in France during protests against President Macron and the new prime ministerial appointment, after the previous one - François Bayrou - was removed in a no-confidence vote over government budget cuts.
