PARIS: French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday reshuffled his ministers for key domestic portfolios such as education, housing and urban affairs, as his government begins its response to riots that shook the country three weeks ago.
Attal, a rising star among Macronistas, became France's youngest cabinet member at 29 when he joined government in 2018. He gained a reputation as a quick-witted, politically astute loyalist as government spokesman, before being appointed to the powerful budget portfolio. Borne, Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire, Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna and Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin all remained in place.
The reshuffle marks the departure of many figures from civil society, one of the hallmarks of Macron's promise to renew French politics in 2017, while the newcomers have mostly already gained political experience in parliament or as mayors.
