A potential interest rate hike would be a threat says France's Fillon

French presidential candidate Francois Fillon with some comments

• An interest hike would be a threat to French debt

• He would balance French finances in 5 years

Campaign policies in full flow. We'll assume he means an ECB hike ;-)

If any country is at threat from a rate hike after all these years of low rates and supposed fiscal and structural reforms, they deserve everything they get.
