The National Assembly has significantly revised the government's initial budget proposal, leading to a potential reduction in the state deficit for 2025.
The introduction of new taxes on super profits and large corporations reflects a shift in fiscal policy driven by left-leaning deputies.
Political divisions were evident, with the right and center opposing certain tax increases while the far-right National Rally played a pivotal role in the voting process.
The upcoming vote on the revised budget will likely see significant opposition due to the high levels of proposed tax increases.
If the budget is rejected, it will revert to the Senate in its original form, complicating the government's fiscal plans further.
