French tax hikes fail to curb debt, which hits 119% of GDP

France has raised taxes and charges by €36.7bn since 2024, yet public debt reached €3,595.5bn (119% of GDP) by end-June. The additional revenue only partially offset the deficit, indicating fiscal consolidation is insufficient. This raises concerns about France's fiscal trajectory and potential pressure on sovereign spreads.
