法国立法者拒绝在星期五征收拟议财富税, 击败左翼对超过一亿欧元资产征税的推力。 French lawmakers rejected a proposed wealth tax on Friday, defeating a left-wing push for a levy on assets over 100 million euros. 在经济学家Gabriel Zucman的启发下,这项措施在国民议会中失败了228至172, 降级版也被否决。 The measure, inspired by economist Gabriel Zucman, failed 228 to 172 in the National Assembly, with a scaled-down version also rejected. 左翼政党警告说,如果不进行税制改革,他们不会支持政府的预算,从而威胁政治不稳定。 Left-wing parties warned they would not back the government’s budget without tax reform, threatening political instability. 塞巴斯蒂安·勒摩尔库总理称税收不现实,因为议会在支离破碎的快速选举之后仍然分裂。 Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu called the tax unrealistic, as parliament remains divided after fractured snap elections. 政府现在面临压力,要求在年终前达成妥协。 The government now faces pressure to reach a compromise before year-end.
