The downgrade to A+ is the lowest rating ever given to France by a major agency and reflects the political crisis and rising debt. The new Prime Minister, Sebastien Lecornu, is facing pressure to draft a budget approved by a divided parliament. Fitch emphasizes that political instability affects fiscal consolidation, and other agencies may follow suit.
