After Britain, France could leave the EU

(Baonghean.vn) - After the UK voted to Brexit in June 2016, EU member states are now uncertain about never leaving the common European home. Most recently, a member of the European Parliament - György Schöpflin said "If you are looking for a country that is about to leave the EU, look at France."

“In Hungary, the number of people in favor of remaining in the EU is around 65%, while in France it is only 40%, and in Italy it is similarly low,” said Mr. Schöpflin.

“We always wanted a European Union that was ready to listen. But countries are not ready to listen and are going their own way. It is difficult to say what will happen in the next three years,” Mr. Schöpflin said.

A recent University of Edinburgh poll found that 53% of French people want a referendum on whether to leave or stay in the EU, with 33% voting to remain and 22% undecided.

Even the President of the French National Front - Marine Le Pen once said on television that "I will vote for Brexit, and I also think that France has 1,000 more reasons to leave the EU than Britain."

Also, in the town of Beauvais, located between Calais and Paris, most people here support a Frexit.
