French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen told a rally on Sunday that the single currency from which she wants France to come out, it was like a knife in the ribs for the French people.
"We are at the mercy of a currency adapted to Germany and not to our economy. The euro is mostly a knife stuck in our ribs to make us go where others want us to go," Le Pen said to loud cheers and applause.
A government under President Le Pen will bring France out of the euro zone and return the national currency, hold a referendum on its EU membership and slap taxes on imports and on companies hiring foreigners.
Opinion polls forecast Le Pen will do well in the April 23 first round of the presidential election only to lose the May 7 run-off to centrist candidate Emmanuel Macron.
