• 34-year-old Gabriel Attal becomes the youngest prime minister of France.
• He replaces Elisabeth Borne who held the reins of the government for 20 months.
• Attal's popularity in his short stint as Minister of Education was key to his appointment.
• Attal's appointment can be seen as a desperate measure by Macron amidst the current challenging political landscape.
• A lot is expected from Attal as prime minister, including facing the campaign for the European elections and settling internal conflicts.

Conclusion: The change of prime minister can be seen as a strategic move to combat the growing political threat and breathe new life into Macronism. However, Attal faces a significant challenge and the crucial question is whether he will be up to the task.
