Until recently the expectation was that the current President Nicolas Sarkozy would be booted out. The euro crisis has after all ended the careers of a succession of European leaders. And there's no question that, like most other European countries, France has some serious economic problems to address. Yet in recent weeks, Mr Sarkozy has been clawing back ground from his main rival Francois Hollande of the Socialist Party. Indeed, it now looks like the result will be very close. So what are the key economic issues facing France and how do the candidates propose to tackle them? Shahin Vallee is a French citizen and a visiting fellow at the European think tank Bruegel. I asked him whether he thought either of the main presidential candidates have faced up to the huge challenges of resolving the eurozone crisis.
"I don't think that's the case yet, but at the same time the experience of the last two years of crisis is not meaningless. And I believe that it has laid the foundation of a stronger Europe. So I'm hoping that under the intense urgency of this crisis, the next policy makers in France will be able to seize the opportunity and build something stronger."第一轮法国总统竞选将于周日举行。目前为止,人们都预计现任总统尼可拉斯•萨科齐将会出局。毕竟,欧元区危机已迫使一系列欧洲领导人结束总统生涯。毫无疑问,正如其他众多欧洲国家一样,法国本身也有严重的经济问题需要处理。但是近几周,萨科齐总统从他的主要对手社会党的弗朗索瓦•奥朗德手中夺回了几成胜率。的确,目前的态势似乎结果将十分接近。那么法国目前所面临的主要经济问题都有哪些?这些总统候选人们将提出怎样的方法来应对?沙辛•威尔宜是一名法国市民,同时是欧洲智囊团布鲁盖尔的一名访问学者。我询问他是否认为有哪个主要总统候选人勇敢面对了解决欧元区危机的巨大挑战。
“我不这么认为。但同时过去两年处理经济危机的经验并非是毫无意义。我相信这为一个更加强大的欧洲的成长奠定了基础。所以我希望在目前危机的紧张局势下,下一届法国的高层决策人将有能力抓住机遇,筑造更强大的法国。”
