Following concessions to socialists and uses of Article 49.3, France's National Assembly on February 2 rejected two censure motions against PM Sébastien Lecornu's government, definitively adopting the 2026 finance bill targeting a 5% GDP deficit. Lecornu hailed the parliamentary compromise amid opposition outcry, with the text now headed to the Constitutional Council.
