Oui la dette entame la souveraineté 🇫🇷 et il est bon de le rappeler quand on parle d'endettement européen. Donc le rappel est dur mais vrai. Par contre, les reproches sur les investissements de défense et les conseils de réduction de nos dépenses sociales, on s'en passera venu d'un ministre non-FR.

L'Allemagne juge les efforts français en matière de dépenses de défense «insuffisants»
L’Allemagne juge les efforts français « insuffisants » en matière de défense. Le chef de la diplomatie allemande, Johann Wadephul, a appelé la France à « faire des économies », notamment « dans le domaine social », pour « disposer de la marge de manoeuvre nécessaire pour atteindre l'objectif central d'une capacité de défense de l'Europe ». Objectif dans le viseur : les 5 % du PIB consacrés à la sécurité d’ici à 2035, un cap poussé par Donald Trump au sein de l’Otan.

Tariffs have been one of Trump's main instruments to reshape the global trade order. While the administration argues that tariffs are paid by foreign companies, 96% of the burden was absorbed by US citizens.
