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.

After months of political uncertainty following a snap legislative election, France appeared on the cusp of a new government on Thursday, as Prime Minister Michel Barnier was set to present his cabinet to President Emmanuel Macron.
