Joan Larroumec presented the tensions between France and Germany as a result of increasing competition, particularly in the defense industry. He indicated that Berlin planned military spending of €108 billion in 2026, compared to €57 billion for Paris, and nearly €140 billion in 2027. According to him, Germany was seeking to use these expenditures as a lever for economic transformation, while its historical industrial model was weakened. Larroumec notably cited the decline in German exports to China, which he claimed fell from €106 billion in 2022 to €81 billion in 2025, as well as a reduction of 142,400 jobs in the German automotive industry since 2019. He also wrote that German defense start-ups had received $3.5 billion in investments in 2026, compared to $375 million in France, and that Berlin had concluded a framework agreement with Helsing and Stark that could reach €4.3 billion. He estimated that this strategy heightened rivalries between the two countries and jeopardized their joint programs. He reported that Paris and Berlin acknowledged on June 8 that the SCAF could not be successfully executed, and that the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces announced Germany's abandonment of the MGCS tank program. He also mentioned competition in drones, artificial intelligence, and space, where, according to him, Germany was seeking to reduce France's position. Finally, Larroumec argued that France's financial difficulties limited its ability to invest in defense and risked weakening its industry. He stated that French and German interests were becoming increasingly misaligned and that this situation could lead to chaotic episodes in Europe. #France #Allemagne #Défense (translated)

"Today, those who do not have the courage to overcome their own taboos contribute to a debt that we will no longer be able to resolve without a considerable loss of prosperity."

The National Rally stated that Emmanuel Macron would have created more debt than all the Presidents of the Republic, from General de Gaulle to Jacques Chirac. The party argued that this unlimited debt poses a major risk to citizens and presented the control of debt by a RN-UDR government as a moral, political, and social duty aimed at protecting the country and its inhabitants. #Dette #Politique #Économie (translated)

The author wrote that this situation primarily concerned all countries that, according to him, had excessively borrowed to take advantage of abnormally low rates.

Beatrice Rosen wrote that she saw a video in which Philippe de Villiers asked Emmanuel Macron to activate the state of emergency. According to her, Macron was trying to make the opposition demand this measure themselves and was allowing the situation to worsen for this purpose. She believed that several scenarios were being tested before the election to provoke widespread chaos, citing external and internal interference as well as riots. She added that a new form of state of emergency had been created in the law. Rosen clarified that this did not mean nothing should be done, but accused those she targeted of allowing the situation to deteriorate until the state of emergency appeared as the only option, with the consent of the population. She compared this strategy to that of debt, asserting that the country would be brought to a level of indebtedness such that the federalization of the European Union would be presented as the only solution to "save" it. #ÉtatDurgence #CrisePolitique #France (translated)

Bravo to Les Échos for its most comical headline on the topic of debt: "The increase in indebtedness promises to be at the heart of the presidential debates while Jean-Luc Mélenchon proposes to cancel the debt." One can gauge the intellectual level of the readers that the editorial team believes capable of believing such a summary at the cost of 5 euros for the newspaper... #dette #présidentielle #humour (translated)

Le maire de Bordeaux, Thomas Cazenave, alerte sur le risque de « mise sous tutelle » du budget de la métropole en raison d'un endettement extrême et d'une croissance des dépenses de fonctionnement, ce qui pourrait entraîner des coupes budgétaires ou des hausses d'impôts. #Bordeaux #Budget #MiseSousTutelle

Le Vatican a rendu publique la prière que récitera Léon XIV à grotte de Massabielle, à Lourdes, le 26 septembre... ..."Obtiens pour la France des dirigeants sages et généreux, prêts au sacrifice d’eux-mêmes, capables d’affronter les défis et voulant servir le bien commun. Qu’ils la gardent en paix dans le concert des nations. Qu’ils fassent entendre sa voix pour promouvoir la défense des droits humains fondamentaux, ainsi que la paix dans le monde, rejetant à jamais les logiques de guerre."... Prière de Léon XIV. Cette prière est une allusion directe à la folie du satanique Macron ! Macron ? euthanasie, guerre , endettement, misère et destruction. #Vatican #Prière #Paix
