How is France's budget crisis affecting the EU? Concerns mount over French instability

Description

We sit down with two MEPs to discuss France's ballooning debt and deficit, both of which are much higher than the limits set out in the EU's Stability Pact. France being the second-largest economy in the EU, its current political and economic instability could also have an impact on the other member states. So how concerned should Europe be? 

Programme prepared by Oihana Almandoz, Perrine Desplats and Isabelle Romero
