Not to be that guy, but if France were to enter a war/emergency situation, wouldn't that type of article be applied de-facto?

I guess the surprising part is that it's up to the Prime Minister to define "Emergency"?



De facto it's a totally different thing because means "locally" where the emergency is locally evident, not arbitrary declared by a handful of people.

Beside that in a Democracy only the Parliament can declare a state of emergency.
