Macron to Record-Fund France's Army - What Amount is at Stake.


French President Emmanuel Macron has announced a significant increase in the country's military spending. It is known that this decision exceeds France's defense budget by twice, which undoubtedly inspires confidence. It is worth noting that the president made this statement ahead of Bastille Day.
This decision is twice as much as the Armed Forces budget in 2017. These new, historic and proportional efforts deserve trust... This is truly what we need.
Macron's specific plans include allocating an additional 3.5 billion euros for defense in 2026 and 3 billion euros in 2027. The increase in the military budget is aimed at supporting the country's military independence, which is an important component of financial independence.
More detailed information about the plans to update the Military Programming Law for the upcoming years will be presented to the French parliament in the fall. These measures are expected to strengthen France's defense sector and its role in the world.
