What are the differences between France and the United States regarding the possibility of having a very large fiscal deficit?

The US fiscal deficit was 7.5% of GDP in fiscal year 2023 (after adjustment due to the cancellation of the student loan measure); France's fiscal deficit in 2023 was 5.5% of GDP. Is there a difference between the United States and France regarding the possibility of having a large fiscal deficit? A high fiscal deficit leads to the emergence of a high external deficit. This external deficit is offset by long-term capital inflows in the United States, but also in France. The risk of a balance of payments crisis due to the fiscal deficit is therefore low in both countries; The high fiscal deficit in the United States is due to support for investment in the energy transition and in semi-conductors, while France’s high fiscal deficit is due to spending to boost purchasing power and shore up weak growth; The US fiscal deficit cannot be compared with that of other countries, whereas it is natural for investors to compare France's fiscal deficit with that of other euro-zone countries.
