French finance minister Le Maire is speaking in Paris
- Trade war has been avoided but uncertainties still remain
- French growth expected at 1.7% in 2018
- 2019 growth expected to show a "sustained pace"
- Government won't change course despite slower growth
- Remains committed to deficit within 3% of GDP in 2019
At least someone is acknowledging the fact that there may be slower growth seen this year. Nothing much of note but just a reminder that there are growing elements of uncertainty surrounding the Eurozone economy as we head into the final stages of Q3 and into Q4 this year.
