French Government on Verge of Collapse Over Budget
France's Delegate Minister for Gender Equality and the Fight Against Discrimination Aurore Berge attends an extraordinary parliamentary session ahead of a confidence vote on the government's austerity budget at the National Assembly in Paris, France, on September 8, 2025. The French Parliament is expected to oust Prime Minister Francois Bayrou after just nine months in office, plunging the country into fresh political uncertainty and posing a dilemma for President Emmanuel Macron. Bayrou surprised even his allies by calling the confidence vote to end a months-long standoff over his austerity budget, which includes nearly 44 billion euros ($52 billion) in cost savings to reduce France's debt.
