PASOK-KINAL: Macron victory hope – Must not hide the problems of the European status quo

“Emmanuel Macron’s victory in France sends a message of hope everywhere, to the EU Member States and their citizens. Now, in the second round, the fight against populism and the far right will be fought, with hope and expectation being “It is victorious”, stresses in a statement on the result of the first round of the presidential elections in France the foreign minister of PASOK – Movement for Change Andreas Loverdos.

“However, the observation of the result shows that the majority of French people are critical of the EU and its policies. After Brexit, the French once again express their dissatisfaction and opposition.

“Macron’s apparent victory must not hide the imperfections, shortcomings, problems of the current European status quo, as well as the arrogance and inadequacies of the leaders who express it”, notes Charilaou Trikoupi.
