This is patently untrue.

It's not technically correct since there's no controls at the border with Monaco (I think), but France does officially informed the EU that it has temporary controls at all other borders until the end of October.

New terrorist threats, increasing risk of terrorist organisations present on national territory targeting the Rugby World Cup taking place in September and October 2023, increase in irregular entry flows at the external borders (from the Central Mediterranean and the Western Balkans); internal borders with Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Spain
