Gabriel Attal outlined his budget plan at the POLITICO Playbook Paris summit, stating that 150 billion euros in savings over five years is needed to rebalance France's public accounts, but this amount may need to be higher. He aims to reduce the public deficit below 3% of GDP by 2032 and achieve a balanced budget by 2030.
