At 42, Rishi Sunak becomes the youngest prime minister the country has ever seen and, as the press notes, becomes the first "non-white" host of Downing Street.

Rishi Sunak was received on Tuesday by King Charles III to succeed Liz Truss and become British Prime Minister, the third in two months in a country plagued by unprecedented instability and a deep social crisis.

Arrived at 10:07 a.m. (Paris time) at Buckingham Palace, the 42-year-old ex-banker and finance minister held his first audience with the sovereign, according to images of the meeting released by the services of Charles III.
