Currently, Paris is allocating billions of euros to increase existing stockpiles and replenish its air defense missiles used by the air force in intercepting Iranian drone attacks in the Gulf region. French Prime Minister Seleção recently told lawmakers, "The immediate priority is, of course, ammunition." This statement comes against the backdrop of widespread European concerns about a potential conflict with Russia before 2030. The French government will submit an updated military planning law on April 8, planning to allocate 8.5 billion euros for drones and missiles by 2030. The 64-page draft explicitly aims to prepare for a "war economy."

The plan proposes to utilize existing policy funding channels, such as those for "new infrastructure" and technological innovation/re-lending, to support the upgrading and transformation of eligible old plants. It also emphasizes leveraging relevant government investment funds to provide investment support to enterprises. Financial institutions are encouraged to implement targeted credit policies based on industrial layout and capacity control, and to promote bank-enterprise cooperation through credit market service platforms and national industry-finance cooperation platforms to improve the quality and efficiency of financial services. Enterprises can enjoy existing support policies during the upgrading and transformation process. Local governments with the necessary conditions can utilize existing funding channels to support the upgrading and transformation of eligible old plants. The annual performance evaluation of relevant central enterprises should appropriately consider the impact of upgrading and transformation of old plants on their operating performance.
