Overview
- The resolution passed 185–184 with votes from the RN, its UDR ally, and roughly half of Les Républicains and Horizons, marking the first RN-authored text ever adopted.
- Parliament’s vote carries no legal force over treaties, and ministers signaled the executive will prioritize renegotiation with Algeria rather than unilateral abrogation.
- Attendance lapses, notably within the presidential Ensemble group and including Gabriel Attal’s absence, drew sharp criticism after the razor-thin outcome.
- Left-wing leaders condemned the initiative as xenophobic, while figures on the right defended it as necessary pressure on Algiers; Le Pen and Bardella urged the government to act.
- The RN used its niche day to advance additional hard-line immigration proposals, including reviving the offense of illegal stay, which LR and Horizons backed in committee as Renaissance opposed.
