France’s precarious financial condition has sparked worries in financial markets, particularly reflected in bond yields now exceeding those of Greece. Pierre Moscovici, the head of the French Court of Auditors, has warned that the situation is ‘dangerous.’ Prime Minister Michel Barnier is facing a budget deficit of €60 billion amid a fraught political landscape, with a rising debt-to-GDP ratio expected to exceed 115% next year. Analysts express skepticism about overcoming the budgetary issues, while major credit ratings agencies hint at possible downgrades if deficits remain high.
