Francois Hollande gave his first victory speech in Tulle, his sleepy constituency in deeply rural France, in the early evening of May 6th, soon after it was announced that he had beaten Nicolas Sarkozy by 51.6% to 48.4%. It was the first defeat of an incumbent French president since Francois Mitterrand, the only previous Socialist president of France's Fifth Republic, beat Valery Giscard d'Estaing in 1981. Only after this low-key provincial start did Mr Hollande hop onto a specially chartered jet and head for the capital, where his supporters were being entertained by an assortment of French rock stars. When, a little after midnight, Mr Hollande at last appeared on the stage at the Bastille a huge cheer went up. Hoarse of voice, he urged the crowds to remember all your lives this night. It heralded for all of Europe, he cried, that change is coming and that there would be an end to austerity. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
