Macron Weighs New French Prime Minister Amid Immigration Tensions
-
French President Macron could choose a new prime minister as soon as Monday, seeking a new look for a criticized government.
-
Current PM Borne's position has been unstable since an immigration bill was voted down last month, though eventually passed.
-
Macron met with Borne Sunday night, with observers believing they discussed a cabinet reshuffle.
-
Two leading candidates for new PM are Sebastien Lecornu and Julien Denormandie, but choosing risks exacerbating tensions.
-
Some critics have called for protests against the recent immigration law, calling it a "dangerous turn for the Republic."
