Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu is revealed to have falsely claimed a master's degree in public law.

Mediapart reported that Lecornu's official biography was altered to reflect "studies in law" instead of a claimed master's, which he never obtained.

Matignon initially denied changes to the biography and later admitted he held a Master 1, a degree level no longer in existence.
