Former French Prime Minister Manuel Valls has called for a conference to address the question of refounding the European Union in his program for the French Socialist Party presidential election primaries.
If elected, Valls wants to hold "a refounding conference… to create the conditions for a consensus essential to the survival of the European project," he said, outlining his program on Tuesday.
The refounding will involve affirming the social model, increasing border controls, applying heavy taxes to products entering the internal market without meeting the social and environmental rules, and introducing an EU-wide minimum wage.
He also proposed a pause in the expansion of the European Union and an end to plans for Turkey to join the bloc.
