Mélenchon Plans Central Bank Debt Cancellation, Critics Warn
x/matthieu-pigasse
— Aug 26, 2026
French far-left candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon has revived a proposal to cancel 18% of the public debt held by the Bank of France to free fiscal space, a plan that has drawn cautious support from some allies but fierce legal and economic criticism from opponents. Critics warn it would amount to central-bank financing of the government and could spook markets, with debt levels around €3.5 trillion and a debt-to-GDP ratio above 116%, while EU treaties explicitly prohibit such moves and officials say the idea is dangerous and unworkable.

x/france
— Jul 22, 2026
Liverpool have made initial enquiries and continued interest in Monaco winger Maghnes Akliouche as they seek attacking reinforcements to replace Mohamed Salah, with PSG also pursuing the France international. Monaco reportedly values him at about €50 million, and Liverpool’s approach — alongside PSG’s bid activity and Akliouche’s 31 Ligue 1 appearances last season featuring 6 goals and 6 assists — suggests a potential move could hinge on PSG’s stance and Monaco’s price.
