Marine Le Pen, a far-right leader, has criticized the French budget, describing it as "bad, unjust, and violent."

This critique comes at a time of heightened political tensions, as Le Pen threatens to destabilize the government led by Michel Barnier. Experts warn that her actions could have significant economic and political consequences within the Eurozone.

Additionally, the European Commission is expected to approve spending plans for all member countries, except for the Netherlands. Disagreements between Brussels and The Hague regarding public spending figures for the coming years have resulted in this unusual decision, highlighting ongoing fiscal tensions within the EU.
