Summary
France mobilized about 70,000 police and security officers for Saturday, seeking to prevent a repeat of the arson and looting that occurred during last weekend's unrest. The Louvre and other museums will close for the day. Separately, Moody's Ratings kept France's credit rating unchanged despite rising government debt and political fragmentation that has made reducing borrowing difficult.
