Encyclopedic overview
François Asselineau ( French pronunciation: [fʁɑ̃swa asəlino] , born 14 September 1957) is a French politician and an Inspector General for finances.
Asselineau was a member of the Rally for France (RPF) and UMP before creating his own political party the Popular Republican Union (Union Populaire Républicaine or UPR). His movement promotes France's unilateral withdrawal from the European Union, the Eurozone and NATO. Asselineau has been described as a souverainist, but does not self-identify as such. He identifies as being on neither side of the left–right political spectrum, while his career path has been described on Arrêt sur images as the classic one of a right-wing graduate of the École Nationale d'Administration (ENA), on the fringes of the far-right.
