PARIS (AP) 鈥� In his inaugural address to parliament, new French Prime Minister Michel Barnier warned that 鈥渃olossal鈥� and spiraling debts are a 鈥渟word of Damocles鈥� hanging over the country鈥檚 finances.
Barnier was laying out his proposed policy announcements that the veteran conservative and EU Brexit negotiator hopes to push through the legislature despite not having a ruling majority for his new government.
He was regularly heckled by opposition lawmakers, who were calling out remarks and comments during his address to the National Assembly.
