Meanwhile, Europe faces its own political upheavals. France’s government has collapsed after a decisive no-confidence vote ousted Prime Minister Michel Barnier, rendering his 91-day tenure as the shortest in the country’s history. Macron’s government is now in disarray, with no immediate successor appointed. Parliamentary law mandates that a new vote for prime minister cannot occur until next summer, leaving France in a political limbo and threatening fiscal stability.
