BRUSSELS (AP) – The latest on the European Union summit dealing with the Brexit negotiations (all times local)
12:15 p.m.
French President Francois Hollande says French voters have a choice to make about the future of Europe when they cast their ballots in the second round of the presidential election next weekend.
Speaking in Brussels, Hollande said the May 7 vote will show “whether the French people should fear an exit from the European Union. They have everything to win by staying in the European Union.”
Hollande told reporters at a European Union summit Saturday that “it’s a risk” should France follow Britain out of the 28-nation bloc if far-right leader Marine Le Pen becomes president.
