00:46I can look you in the face.
00:48You can not like bankers.
00:50In the meantime, you will not have a loan without a banker.
00:52It's like that.
00:55Very disciplined.
00:56A patriot, French and European.
00:58Maybe a little classic.
01:00Voluntary, determined and open.
01:17It will be a new political movement.

03:12My most flat excuses,
03:14they go to the employees that I was able to hurt,

03:19I happened to hurt some of you,
03:21by my words.
03:22And I make mistakes, yes.
03:23A lot.
03:24I only believe in one thing.
03:26The long term.
