Paris: French President Emmanuel Macron has reaffirmed his intention to complete his term in office despite growing political turmoil and calls for his resignation from across the political spectrum. Speaking during a visit to Egypt, Macron said he would “continue to serve” and focus on restoring stability in France, which has been gripped by months of government collapse and parliamentary deadlock.

The French leader’s declaration came shortly after he reappointed Sébastien Lecornu as prime minister, tasking him once again with forming a government capable of securing majority support in a fractured parliament.
