New French Interior Minister Pledges 'Order' Amid Criticism

Bruno Retailleau's appointment sparks debate over France's shift to the right and his hardline stance on crime and immigration.

Bruno Retailleau, a conservative, has been appointed as France's new interior minister, focusing on restoring order in the country.
Retailleau's agenda includes cracking down on crime and immigration, with specific emphasis on protecting Jewish citizens and other vulnerable groups.
Critics from the left argue that Retailleau's appointment signifies a significant shift towards the reactionary right in French politics.
President Macron's decision to appoint Retailleau follows a snap parliamentary election that resulted in a fragmented National Assembly.
The new government faces potential instability, with the possibility of a no-confidence vote from Marine Le Pen's far-right National Rally.
