Overview
- Lawmakers adopted the RN-authored resolution 185–184, the party’s first text ever approved, with backing from portions of Les Républicains and Horizons.
- The measure is non‑binding and does not alter France’s legal obligations, as foreign policy and treaty matters fall under the government’s authority.
- Government officials signaled a preference for renegotiation with Algeria rather than unilateral denunciation, citing risks of worsening an already tense relationship.
- Low participation from the presidential Renaissance group drew sharp criticism, with Gabriel Attal notably absent as opposition parties argued his vote could have reversed the outcome.
- Legal experts warned a unilateral break could prove ineffective or counterproductive, while the RN’s same‑day push to restore the offense of unlawful stay faces constitutional and EU constraints.
