France’s National Assembly resumed discussions on the controversial public broadcasting reform, which aims to consolidate France Télévisions, Radio France, and the National Audiovisual Institute (INA) into a single entity, France Médias. The reform has faced significant opposition from unions and left-wing parties, leading to strikes and protests. A verbal altercation between Culture Minister Rachida Dati and an assembly official temporarily halted the proceedings, but debates are expected to continue in the coming days.
