MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Earlier in the day, it was announced that 51.9 percent of voters supported the United Kingdom leaving the European Union.
"The President of the European Commission must first consider the vote as repudiation against him," Ferrand, who is also a member of the National Front party, said.
He also called on London, as well as Paris, to engage in negotiations to exit "Brussels’ Europe."
"Supporters of Brussels’ Europe now must draw conclusions by submitting their resignation," Ferrand said.
He added that Brussels should give way to Europe of Nations and Freedoms based on a strong cooperation between sovereign states.
