"Prime Minister Michel Barnier pushed a budget bill through Parliament without a vote, a risky move that may lead to a no-confidence motion this week."
"The prospect of government collapse has rattled financial markets, increased France's borrowing costs, and deepened national uncertainty since last summer’s snap elections."
"Barnier warned of serious market turbulence if a budget is not passed, while Le Pen dismissed his concerns as fear-mongering and fake news."
"Despite making some concessions, including scrapping an electricity tax hike, Le Pen indicated it wasn't enough to prevent a potential government overthrow."
