It was previously expected that the candidate would be named within 48 hours, as the president said earlier in the week.
This appointment is an important step in the formation of a new government to replace the cabinet headed by Michel Barnier. Barnier resigned last week after the government was defeated by a vote of far-right and left-wing MPs in parliament. This event was another test for the country, which is facing its second political crisis in the last six months.
