But, having campaigned as a socialist, and with his own camp’s deep divisions leaving him no real majority in parliament, he could not afford to reveal his pro-industry orientation (he continues to denounce the financial sector) without a significant delay. Whether one calls that realism or lack of political courage, a year and a half has been lost, seriously hampering France and its economy.
对包括我在内的一些人来说，奥朗德从一开始就是真正的社会民主党。但是，由于以社会主义者的形象参与了选战，并且他自己的阵营分歧很深、导致他在议会无法获得真正多数，因此他不得不拖延很久才让其亲产业的立场表露无遗（对金融业，他仍然十分痛恶）。你称这是现实主义也好，是政治勇气也罢，一年半的时间已经浪费掉了，法国及其经济遭到了严重拖累。
