Hollande quits, saying 'I cannot unify France'
In-depth reporting and analysis from a global perspective, as French president Francois Hollande becomes the first incumbent since 1958 not to seek a second term.
As the French President - Francois Hollande - decides not to stand for re-election, we speak to Socialist Party MP Philip Cordery. In a year of political upheaval Ritula is in Germany, where Angela Merkel is seeking a fourth term as Chancellor in next year's elections.
