French Finance Minister Roland Lescure says the government is prepared to use constitutional powers to pass its 2027 budget without a parliamentary vote if negotiations fail. The plan includes roughly €43 billion in spending cuts, a move that would deepen France's ongoing budget standoff and raise questions about the government's ability to command a majority in the National Assembly.
