A new report by four independent economists warns of a significant rise in France’s public debt. The report projects the debt burden will reach €125 billion by 2030, a substantial increase from the current €78 billion. This concerning finding coincides with the government’s preparations for a budget focused on fiscal restraint, described as a “republican safeguard.” The government acknowledges the need to control spending and aims to present a comprehensive budget in the autumn. The report underscores the urgency for immediate action to stabilize France’s public finances. Failure to address the issue promptly could have serious economic consequences for the country. Sébastien Lecornu previously stated a commitment to deliver a budget focused on fiscal health.
