The minority government's deficit reduction plan is encountering parliamentary obstacles, with the fiscal watchdog questioning the realism of the 2027 budget assumptions. If the 2026 budget is rolled over, France's deficit could rise to 6.0% of GDP in 2027, moving the country further from its EU pledge to keep the deficit below 3% of GDP by 2029.",
