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. – Francois Hollande
I am proud to have been capable of giving people hope again. – Francois Hollande
We are a big country, with lots of advantages and history. We are proud to be French. We have to call on patriotism at this time… to ask for an effort in the battle against debt. – Francois Hollande
We need the help of other member countries and leaders who, like us, want to see a change in Europes direction. Thats also my logic when I tell voters that electing me president will not only shape Frances future, but also initiate change across all of Europe. – Francois Hollande
