Frenchman Teddy Riner, five-time Olympic judo champion, announced that he will run for the position of President of France.
The athlete emphasized that France "is bending more and more under the weight of debts", and "the streets have been given over to hooligans".
"France does not need a professional politician who lectures and cancels all day. We need common sense, firmness, justice and a state that restores order," he stressed.
