France's debt nears 122% of GDP with weak growth outlook
Original: France’s economic woes: Debt nears 122% of GDP, growth forecast at just 0.4%
France's public debt has climbed to roughly 122% of GDP while growth forecasts for the economy stand at just 0.4%, underlining deep fiscal strain. The combination of high borrowing and stagnating output is fuelling concern about the government's ability to rein in deficits and is drawing attention to France's position among Europe's most indebted major economies.
Why now: Fresh figures showing near-record debt alongside sluggish growth have renewed debate over France's fiscal health.
