France's prime minister resigns, again, sparking call from far-right for new national elections

France's government has collapsed following Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu's resignation, just a day after forming his cabinet. This marks the fifth prime minister in under two years, deepening a political crisis fueled by a fragmented parliament and deadlock since President Macron's snap elections last year. Lecornu cited party intransigence as his reason for stepping down. Far-right leader Marine Le Pen has called for new snap elections. This instability coincides with France's growing debt crisis and a recent credit rating downgrade.
