The head of France's far-right National Rally party says he doesn't support a no-confidence motion filed against the government, making it more likely that the prime minister will remain in office and a 2025 budget will be adopted.

Jordan Bardella of the far-right Rassemblement National said his party did not intend to back the motion against Prime Minister François Bayrou, who appeared certain of surviving the week after the Socialists said Monday they wouldn't vote to oust him either.

French Prime Minister Francois Bayrou is expected on Wednesday to survive a no-confidence vote in parliament, winning some breathing space after less than two months in office but by no means ensuring long-term survival.
