France PM survives no-confidence vote over forced budget

French Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu survived a no-confidence vote Friday following his move to force his budget through parliament, in a symbolic victory with more such challenges expected.

Lecornu on Tuesday rammed part of the 2026 budget through parliament without a vote, with concessions made to gain the backing of the Socialists, who showed their support Friday by blocking the no-confidence motion from passing.
