Any exit from the euro would only come after a national debate - Le Pen - BBG

According to a recent report by Bloomberg, French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen is trying to reassure voters by claiming that an exit from the euro would only be possible after a national debate.

Key highlights

• About 72 percent of voters want France to remain in the euro showed a recent poll by Ifop.
• Le Pen in an interview with Europe1 Radio: "We have to listen to the people, but we also have to warn them, to give them the keys to understand why unemployment is massive, why austerity policies are everywhere"
• “I note the the polls but believe me, once there is a proper debate, people won’t be in favor. There has never been a debate about the euro in France, because if you criticize it you are accused of blasphemy; some are attached to it in an almost religious way.”
• Le Pen in an interview with Le Parisien newspaper: "“I don’t want chaos, it needs to be done carefully,”
