The French National Olympic and Sports Committee (CNOSF) has criticized the French government's decision to cut its annual subsidy by 75%, from €9.4 million to €2.4 million in 2025. The CNOSF warns this cut, communicated without prior consultation, jeopardizes commitments to key events like the World Games in Chengdu and the European Youth Olympic Festival, and threatens preparations for the 2026 Winter Olympics and the 2028 and 2030 Olympics. CNOSF President David Lappartient has criticized the handling of the matter, stating that no funds have been disbursed for 2025, despite 70% being due by the end of April. The CNOSF is considering legal action, arguing breach of contract. The Sports Ministry is facing an overall budget cut of around €100 million in 2025.
