French President Emmanuel Macron’s chief of staff announced the formation of a new government on Saturday, Reuters reported.

Antoine Armand will serve as finance minister and Jean-Noel Barrot will become foreign minister in a government composed largely of centrist and conservative parties, the Secretary General of the Elysée Palace, Alexis Kohler said late on Saturday.

The government will be led by Michel Barnier.
