Paris English Forums

What are the greatest issues facing France today? Why are they issues?

well France like any country in the world has plenty of problems, like
- unemployment
- buying power in a slump
- immigration
- state/religion separation
- Sarkozy
- Justice system
- racism
- long and frequent transportation strikes

that's all i can think of right now...but if you are in France just to visit you won't even notice any of these problems (well except the transportation strike thing)

)

what exactly you don't like about Sarkozy? Is it because of the press writes many gossips about his personal life? He's a man as well as we all are.

Yes tulaka, but, once he took over the position of president, he's obliged to be more serious than common people.

I agree with Maximus. The position of being a president is a kind of commitment for the people that voted for you.
