REUTERS/Charles Platiau PARIS (Reuters) - French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said on Tuesday he expected carmaker Renault ( RENA.PA ) to name its new chief executive in a few days. Le Maire also said on French CNews TV that media reports that some Nissan ( 7201.T ) executives wanted to break up the alliance with Renault were “malicious”. Nissan said on Tuesday it was “in no way” considering dissolving its alliance with Renault and Mitsubishi Motors ( 7211.T ) and that the alliance was the source of Nissan’s competitiveness.
