Macron rejects minister resignation after weekend of riots and looting in France

French President Emmanuel Macron has rejected the resignation of Interior Minister Laurent Nunez following a weekend of widespread riots and looting across France. Nunez had submitted his resignation to the president on Sunday, but the offer was declined on Monday.

The decision comes in the wake of significant civil unrest that saw violence and property damage occur throughout the country. The rejection of the resignation suggests a move by the administration to maintain continuity within the interior ministry during the ongoing period of national instability.
