France, Europe's second largest economy, is currently in a battle to narrow its widening budget deficit and boost economic growth.

It has set a 0.3-percent growth target this year, and pledged to narrow down its deficit to 4.5 percent of GDP this year and further to 3 percent in 2013, by imposing high tax on the rich.
