France’s Pompidou Faces Economic Tightrope in 1970
The new French president inherits a swollen economy after May 1968 turmoil with a current account deficit rising from 850 million in 1968 to 1.3 billion, inflation easing to 6.5 percent in 1969, and a deflationary tilt aimed at protecting households.
