Economia Franţei nu este într-un pericol economic iminent, dar trebuie redus deficitul, avertizează guvernatorul Băncii Centrale

The Governor of the French Central Bank, Emmanuel Moulin, stated that while France is not facing imminent economic danger, the government must act to reduce the budget deficit. Following a downgrade in growth forecasts by INSEE, Moulin highlighted factors like heatwaves and drought affecting the economy. He acknowledged the need for budgetary measures but noted the economy's strengths, including affordable energy and industrial recovery in key sectors. Analysts expect the government to further downgrade GDP forecasts, with a target to reduce the deficit to 4.9% of GDP this year. Recent data showed a decline in GDP for the first quarter and stagnation in the second quarter.
