French Prime Minister Francois Bayrou used special executive powers Monday to get the country’s 2025 budget approved without a vote by lawmakers, and now faces a no-confidence motion that threatens the survival of his 6-week-old government.

Opposition parties were expected to file the no-confidence motion later Monday, and a vote is expected in the National Assembly on Wednesday.

That may provide France with a budget at last, or send the country into new political and economic turmoil. Bayrou’s survival depends on how many parties agree to support the motion. He is France’s fourth prime minister in little over a year.
