Here’s a rewritten version of the article:

Earlier in the day, Michel Barnier and Marine Le Pen had a phone conversation.
Following their discussion, the government pledged not to include any measures for reducing reimbursement of medications in the Social Security Financing Bill (PLFSS). This marks another concession to the Rassemblement National (RN), which previously forced the government to make a retreat on plans to increase electricity taxes.
However, the government has not, at this stage, given in to Marine Le Pen’s demand to index pensions to inflation.
Marine Le Pen has nonetheless submitted an amendment regarding this proposal. “It’s up to the government to decide whether or not to accept it,” she remarked from the National Assembly prior to Michel Barnier’s intervention.
Meanwhile, the Social Security budget was approved through a joint committee of deputies and senators.
On the other side of the Parliament’s benches, left-wing groups have vowed to bring forward a motion of no-confidence, which could be debated as early as Wednesday or in the days that follow.
