EU must rethink its approach after FN victory says Boldrini

(ANSA) - Brussels, December 7 - House Speaker Laura Boldrini on Monday called on the EU to rethink its approach in the wake of the electoral success of the far-right, anti-immigrant National Front (FN) in in France at the weekend.
    "If we stand still we will be doing a favor to those who would disintegrate the EU and all that we achieved in the past 60 years," Boldrini said at the European Parliament, where she delivered EP President Martin Schulz and EU foreign minister Federica Mogherini a document signed by the speakers of nine parliaments calling for more EU political integration.
    "The time for efficient action has come - we need an EU 2.0 that will rethink its economic policy," Boldrini said.
