France’s government survived a no-confidence vote Wednesday in parliament, and the state budget for 2025 is finally adopted. Prime Minister François Bayrou had used special constitutional powers to get the budget bill approved without a vote by lawmakers,

The head of France’s far-right National Rally party said Tuesday he doesn’t support a no-confidence motion filed against the government, making it more likely that the prime minister will remain in office and a 2025 budget will be adopted.

Prime Minister François Bayrou broke a blockade of opposition parties that had brought down the government of his predecessor by doling out a series of concessions.
