In Front Of You I

My Obligation, If I Become President, Is To Give Another Direction To Europe Than The One That Is Being Forced Upon Us Today.

The Transatlantic Relationship Is Vital For Both Our Countries: France Will Remain A Reliable Ally Of The United States. Nevertheless, Ally Does Not Mean Aligned.

I Am Proud To Have Been Capable Of Giving People Hope Again.

Everyone Says Francois Mitterrand Had Huge Charisma. But Before He Was President They Used To Call Him Badly Dressed, Old, Archaic And Say He Knew Nothing About The Economy Until The Day He Was Elected. It's Called Universal Suffrage. When You're Elected, You Become The Person That Embodies France.

We Find Ourselves In A Difficult Situation In Europe. There's A Crisis, Weak Growth, Unemployment... My Duty Is To Ensure That By The End Of My Mandate France Is In A Better State Than It Was At The Beginning.
