The website states that their internal sources have told them that the Ratatouille ride will be completed, but any future attractions have been on hold. People I know told me a while back that Disneyland Paris was burning through money. I have posted the article below linking to the English version of the article.

I wouldn't read too much into this at the moment. Essentially, nothing's really changing for the time being. The "future invesments" in that article (Star Tours 2, PotC upgrades, Marvel stuff, Soarin', Mermaid, TSM, etc) have never been confirmed at all (well, Star Tours 2 was hinted at for "the future", but was never going to happen any time soon), and they've all only ever been rumours. Essentially, there's not really much to actually put on hold.
Reading around a bit, the common opinion seems to be that it's likely they're just re-working the overall plans for the resort. Previously, a lot of stuff they've done has been reactionary (ie, only fixing/replacing things when they actually break or become unserviceable). It seems likely that now TWDC is involved in the resort, they're putting together a proper plan for the future. If that's the case, it can only be a good thing, but until we know more about what's actually happening, let's not jump to conclusions.
An interesting point that was raised on another forum is that with the news of this (almost certainly
temporary) hold, shares in EuroDisney SCA opened
up yesterday.
For the time being, there's not much to see here. Move along.
