The French president, François Hollande, has dissolved the government after an open feud in his cabinet over the country’s economy.
The prime minister, Manuel Valls, offered his Socialist government’s resignation on Monday after accusing his economy minister of crossing a line with open criticism of the government’s policies.
Hollande accepted the resignation and ordered Valls to form a new government by Tuesday.
France has had effectively no economic growth this year and Hollande’s approval ratings have slumped.
