French Finance Minister Antoine Armand said on Tuesday that the “country is at a turning point.”
He further noted that “French politicians have a responsibility not to plunge the country into uncertainty.”
His comments come as Prime Minister Michel Barnier, appointed by President Macron after July’s inconclusive parliamentary election, faces a no-confidence motion over the budget - a vote he will almost certainly lose, per BBC News.
Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Rally (RN) threatened to pull the plug on the fragile coalition government led by Prime Minister Barnier over the latter’s plan to rein in the massive French deficit.
