Bernard Cazeneuve (born 2 June 1963) is a French Socialist politician who has been Prime Minister of France since December 2016. Born in Senlis, Oise, Cazeneuve rose to prominence with his election as a deputy of the National Assembly representing the 5th constituency of Manche in 1997, and as mayor of Cherbourg-Octeville in 2001.
In 2012, he was appointed Minister of State for European Affairs in the first Ayrault Government, and in 2013 was named Minister of State for the Budget in the second Ayrault Government after the resignation of Jérôme Cahuzac. On 2 April 2014 he was appointed the 42nd Minister of the Interior in the First Valls Government, a role he retained on 27 August 2014 with the formation of the Second Valls Government. On 6 December 2016, Cazeneuve was appointed Prime Minister after Valls resigned to concentrate on the upcoming presidential election.
Bernard Cazeneuve was born on 2 June 1963 in Senlis, Oise, France. His father was the head of the Socialist Party in Oise, which gave him the opportunity to attend a meeting with François Mitterrand.

After graduating from IEP de Bordeaux, he joined the Socialist Party.
