Great moments in French presidential debates

Throughout the Ve Republic, there has been a tradition of the two finalists in a presidential election confronting each other in a televised debate.

The National Audio-visual Institute of France (ina.fr) has posted video of the entire debates and highlights of some of the great moments in French presidential debate history.
