President Emmanuel Macron’s new government sparked an immediate angry reaction from across the political spectrum, raising the risk of a swift collapse that would further cloud the outlook for France’s stretched public finances.

PARIS - French President Emmanuel Macron's chief of staff announced the formation of a new government on Saturday, hoping to put an end to 2-1/2 months of political uncertainty following an inconclusive snap election that delivered a hung parliament.

On Saturday evening in France, the composition of the new government was announced. It was formed two weeks after Michel Barnier was appointed Prime Minister and more than two months after the parliamentary elections.

France's new government is dominated by conservatives and centrists following elections in which a left-wing coalition won the most seats but not a majority.

The new cabinet remains largely dominated by ministers from the ranks of President Emmanuel Macron despite his party’s heavy losses in recent parliamentary elections.
