Overview

  • The National Assembly approved the resolution 157–101 during an LR-led session after nearly five hours of tense debate.
  • The text does not designate the group itself but asks the European Commission to launch a procedure and conduct a legal and factual evaluation.
  • Most of the governing camp and the National Rally supported the measure, while all left-wing groups voted against it.
  • The government issued an avis de sagesse, with Minister Éléonore Caroit cautioning that the resolution is legally fragile.
  • Follow-up now hinges on an Assembly bureau meeting set for February 18 and any action by EU institutions and member states.
