First For France: Youngest & Openly Gay Prime Minister

New Delhi: President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday named Education Minister Gabriel Attal as prime minister in a bid to give new momentum to his presidency. The 34-year-old is France’s youngest and first openly gay head of government, a source close to the presidency told AFP.

Macron late Monday accepted the resignation of Elisabeth Borne, 62, after serving less than two years in office, ahead of a widely expected cabinet reshuffle that seeks to breathe new life into the final three years of his mandate.
