flag France's government survived two no-confidence votes after passing a nuclear-focused energy law amid rising political tensions.

flag The French government survived two no-confidence votes on February 25, 2026, after using a decree to pass the PPE3 energy law, which prioritizes nuclear power and scales back renewable targets. flag The far-right National Rally's motion drew 140 votes, and the hard-left France Unbowed’s received 108, both falling short of the 289 needed. flag The law, aimed at easing financial strain on EDF and supporting carbon neutrality by 2050, has intensified political tensions, especially after a far-right activist’s killing linked to far-left suspects. flag The government, led by Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu in a minority coalition, has now survived multiple challenges this year.
