Paris: Outgoing French Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu, who intensified a political crisis by resigning earlier this week, said Wednesday he expected President Emmanuel Macron to name a new premier within the next 48 hours.
"I feel that a path is possible," Lecornu told French television, adding that he believed the prospects of snap legislative elections had receded. "I think that the situation allows the president to name a prime minister in the next 48 hours," he said, adding that he was not "running after" the job.
