France is Europe's 'big problem', warns Mario MontiFrance has become Europe’s “big problem”, according to the former prime minister of Italy, who warned that anti-Brussels sentiment and the rise of populist parties in the Gallic nation threatened to blow the bloc’s Franco-German axis apart. “In the last few years we have seen France receding in terms of actual economic performance, in terms of complying with all the European rules, and above all in terms of its domestic public opinion – which is turning more and more against Europe,” he told The Telegraph.“France is the big problem of the European Union because the whole construct has been leveraged on the foundation of a solid Franco-German entente. If it isn’t there then there is a poor destiny for Europe,” said Mr Monti. “We’ve seen that the strong axis is no longer so strong.” Jens Weidmann, the president of Germany’s Bundesbank, recently attacked the EU’s decision to give France extra time to sort out its budget.Mr Weidmann said countries such as France, which has failed to meet a 3pc deficit target for several years, should not be allowed to “perpetually put off” belt-tightening.Mr Monti... also said the anti-Brussels sentiment in France was greater than many believed. “I’m always struck when I participate in debates in France – even the elite is so uneasy about the governance of the eurozone."I would not be surprised to hear this tone in Athens or in Lisbon, but I’m very surprised to hear this in Paris.” In a warning to France, Mr Monti said: “Maybe you forgot, but we all remember that France was the country that wanted the euro, not Germany."Germany reluctantly accepted the euro to get approval of the other countries for its reunification process. It would have much rather kept to the Deutsche Mark. It was France who insisted to have the single currency and now it’s so uneasy with it.” Mr Monti, a Brussels veteran who is currently president of Bocconi University, also said the “humiliating” diktats of the so-called “troika” of the European Commission, European Central Bank and International Monetary Fund had caused more damage to the Greek economy and should not continue.While Mr Monti said he was confident Greece would remain in the eurozone, he stressed that more work would need to be done on both sides.“In a nutshell, Greece has to recognise that most causes of their crisis are not European but are Greek - namely mismanagement for decades,” he said.“Nevertheless, it is true that one aspect of the cure - the troika - did contribute to make further damage. I fought for the troika to stay out of Italy because they are humiliating for domestic public opinion”.
