PARIS (Reuters) -French President Emmanuel Macron, referring to a slump this week in the French stock and bond markets ahead of a looming government confidence vote, told members his cabinet that France was solid, a government spokesperson told reporters.
"France is a solid country with solid economics ... but we must take the reins of our destiny," government spokesperson Sophie Primas said, describing Macron's remarks. "It's a strong signal that we are sending to the financial markets that we want to have a France that is even more solid."
Prime Minister Francois Bayrou told reporters on Monday that he would seek a vote of confidence in his government over his budget plans, which he appears set to lose.
Macron did not discuss the option of dissolving Parliament in the meeting, Primas said.
