Ceci n'apparaît pas dans les articles français ni belges, il faut aller le chercher dans les medias anglo-saxons. En France, on vous cause neige, fêtes de fin d'année, foie gras et volailles à gogo.
Sur Google en anglais, on trouve ceci : 21 articles, en anglais, qui vous expliquent que la France est la prochaine sur la liste, après la Belgique.
Ce n'est plus du fantasme ou du demain.
C'est pour nos fêtes de fin d'année.
Bloomberg, hélas fort lu, confirme.

France's top credit rating under threat as Euro debt crisis spreads

France risks losing its gold-plated credit rating as the European debt crisis spreads, analysts have warned.
The euro fell to a two-week low against the US dollar on fears that no country is immune from the turmoil plaguing the Continent. It also hit a record low against the Swiss franc.
'Every sovereign may get penalised in the year ahead,' said Toby Nangle at Baring Asset Management in London. 'It would be a big deal if France was to have its AAA rating stripped.'
Towering: The cost of insuring French debt has tripled this year
The credit scores of countries such as Portugal, Spain, Greece and Ireland have already come under pressure due to record levels of debt in the eurozone.
Moody's Investors Service yesterday lowered its ratings on five Irish lenders having last week slashed Ireland's sovereign debt. It cut the score on Allied Irish Banks, Bank of Ireland, EBS Building Society, Irish Life & Permanent, and Irish Nationwide Building Society.

But the size of debts in other countries including Belgium, Italy and France is also causing alarm. French banks are the biggest holders of debt issued by Europe's peripheral countries making them vulnerable to the crisis.
The cost of insuring French debt has tripled this year and now implies a rating of Baa1 - seven notches below its top AAA ranking.
'If problems in the eurozone aren't solved quickly, then the ratings agencies will do more downgrades,' said Ralf Ahrens at investment group Frankfurt Trust. 'I see France as a risk.'
Separately, the European Central Bank said it has 'serious concerns' about the £72bn bailout of Ireland.
It is worried that the rushed rescue package could affect its ability to provide support to other eurozone members.
