French political crisis is not yet a regime crisis for PM Lecornu, government spokesperson says

PARIS (Reuters) -Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu told his new Cabinet on Tuesday that the political crisis the country is going through is not yet a regime crisis, government spokesperson Maud Bregeon said on Tuesday.

She said that Lecornu had also said that “we are capable of taking action, but the government will not do just anything”.

Lecornu will address parliament on Tuesday afternoon to spell out his budget priorities, hoping to win over enough Socialists to stave off losing a no-confidence vote that would plunge France further into the political mire.
