Nicolas Sarkozy, the former French president and leader of the opposition party, The Republicans, on Friday called for a "new European treaty" in the wake of Brexit.
"What the British have said could have been said by a other European populations. We cannot ignore it," said Mr Sarkozy, who it is widely thought hopes to run for re-election.
He added: "Europe can function without the British and we have time, by the way, to rethink our relationship with our neighbour".
