According to reports, French Finance Minister, Nicolas Sarkozy has expressed opposition to suggestions that he should boost the country's economy by cutting taxes.
"In a period of economic slowdown, we automatically think of stimulating (the economy) by spending or by cutting taxes. These instruments, which have been tried and tested before - we should not use them," he told the Senate.
However, the Finance Minister reportedly went on to add that taxes will be cut "as soon as the budgetary situation allows it".
