French President Francois Hollande had called a secret meeting of his cabinet as early as May 22, 2012, to discuss a possible Greek exit from the eurozone said Wikileaks on Tuesday citing secret intelligence information from the U.S. National Security Agency.

The information sheds new light on France’s true desire for Greece to remain in the eurozone. In the past, the French government has opposed austerity in Greece but has also pushed for Greece to commit to tough reforms.

Wikileaks quoted the NSA as stating that Hollande had wanted the meeting to be kept secret. He wanted to discuss the hypothetical fall-out on the French economy if a Grexit took place. The meeting was held after Hollande’s disappointment by a meeting with conservative German Chancellor Angela Merkel where Hollande had felt that Merkel appeared to have “given up” on Greece.

The Wikileaks report stated that Hollande had been very worried for Greece and Greek people and their reactions. He invited SPD Chairman Sigmar Gabriel to Paris for talks on June 13 of that year.

WikiLeaks also said on Tuesday that the United States National Security Agency spied on French presidents Jacques Chirac, Nicolas Sarkozy and Francois Hollande, citing top secret intelligence reports and technical documents.
