As a former <a href="/wiki/First_Secretary_of_the_Socialist_Party" title="First Secretary of the Socialist Party">Socialist Party First Secretary</a>, he was the first <a href="/wiki/Left-wing_politics" title="Left-wing politics">left-wing politician</a> to assume the presidency under the <a href="/wiki/French_Fifth_Republic" title="French Fifth Republic">Fifth Republic</a>. </p><p>Due to family influences, Mitterrand started his political life on the Catholic nationalist right. He served under the <a href="/wiki/Vichy_France" title="Vichy France">Vichy regime</a> during its earlier years. Subsequently, he joined the <a href="/wiki/French_Resistance" title="French Resistance">Resistance</a>, moved to the left, and held ministerial office several times under the <a href="/wiki/French_Fourth_Republic" title="French Fourth Republic">Fourth Republic</a>. Mitterrand opposed <a href="/wiki/Charles_de_Gaulle" title="Charles de Gaulle">Charles de Gaulle</a>'s establishment of the Fifth Republic. Although at times a politically isolated figure, he outmanoeuvred rivals to become the left's standard bearer in the <a href="/wiki/1965_French_presidential_election" title="1965 French presidential election">1965</a> and <a href="/wiki/1974_French_presidential_election" title="1974 French presidential election">1974</a> presidential elections, before being elected president in the <a href="/wiki/1981_French_presidential_election" title="1981 French presidential election">1981 presidential election</a>. He was <a href="/wiki/1988_French_presidential_election" title="1988 French presidential election">re-elected in 1988</a> and remained in office until 1995. </p><p>Mitterrand invited the <a href="/wiki/French_Communist_Party" title="French Communist Party">Communist Party</a> into his first government, which was a controversial decision at the time. However, the Communists were boxed in as junior partners and, rather than taking advantage, saw their support eroded, eventually leaving the cabinet in 1984. </p><p>Early in his first term, Mitterrand followed a radical left-wing economic agenda, including nationalisation of key firms and the introduction of the 39-hour work week. He likewise pushed a progressive agenda with reforms such as the abolition of the <a href="/wiki/Capital_punishment_in_France" title="Capital punishment in France">death penalty</a>, and the end of a government monopoly in radio and television broadcasting. He was also a strong promoter of French culture and implemented a range of costly "<a href="/wiki/Grands_Projets_of_Fran%C3%A7ois_Mitterrand" title="Grands Projets of François Mitterrand">Grands Projets</a>". However, faced with economic tensions, he soon abandoned his nationalization programme, in favour of <a href="/wiki/Austerity" title="Austerity">austerity</a> and <a href="/wiki/Market_liberalization" class="mw-redirect" title="Market liberalization">market liberalization</a> policies. In 1985, he was faced with a major controversy after ordering the <a href="/wiki/Sinking_of_the_Rainbow_Warrior" title="Sinking of the Rainbow Warrior">bombing of the <i>Rainbow Warrior</i></a>, a <a href="/wiki/Greenpeace" title="Greenpeace">Greenpeace</a> vessel docked in <a href="/wiki/Auckland" title="Auckland">Auckland</a>. Later in 1991, he became the first French President to appoint a female prime minister, <a href="/wiki/%C3%89dith_Cresson" title="Édith Cresson">Édith Cresson</a>. During his presidency, Mitterrand was twice forced by the loss of a parliamentary majority into "<a href="/wiki/Cohabitation_(government)" title="Cohabitation (government)">cohabitation governments</a>" with conservative cabinets led, respectively, by <a href="/wiki/Jacques_Chirac" title="Jacques Chirac">Jacques Chirac</a> (1986–1988), and <a href="/wiki/%C3%89douard_Balladur" title="Édouard Balladur">Édouard Balladur</a> (1993–1995). </p><p>Mitterrand’s foreign and defence policies built on those of his Gaullist predecessors, except in regard to their reluctance to support <a href="/wiki/European_integration" title="European integration">European integration</a>, which he reversed. His partnership with German chancellor <a href="/wiki/Helmut_Kohl" title="Helmut Kohl">Helmut Kohl</a> advanced European integration via the <a href="/wiki/Maastricht_Treaty" title="Maastricht Treaty">Maastricht Treaty</a>, and he accepted <a href="/wiki/German_reunification" title="German reunification">German reunification</a>. </p><p>Less than eight months after leaving office, he died from the <a href="/wiki/Prostate_cancer" title="Prostate cancer">prostate cancer</a> he had successfully concealed for most of his presidency.

Although the minutes proved a direct link between Urba and corrupt payments to politicians, an edict from the office of François Mitterrand (even though he himself was listed as a recipient) prevented further investigation.

This was an unusual set-up since such law enforcement missions against terrorism are normally left to the <a href="/wiki/French_National_Police" class="mw-redirect" title="French National Police">National Police</a> and <a href="/wiki/French_Gendarmerie" class="mw-redirect" title="French Gendarmerie"><i>Gendarmerie</i></a>, run under the cabinet and the Prime Minister, and under the supervision of the judiciary. The cell was largely staffed by members of these services, but it bypassed the normal line of command and safeguards. Three thousand conversations concerning 150 people (7 for reasons judged to be contestable by the ensuing court process) were recorded between January 1983 and March 1986 by this anti-terrorist cell at the Elysée Palace. In one of its first actions, the cell was involved in the "<a href="/wiki/Irish_of_Vincennes" title="Irish of Vincennes">Irish of Vincennes</a>" affair, in which it appeared that members of the cell had planted weapons and explosives in the Vincennes apartment of three Irish nationals who were arrested on terrorism charges. Most markedly, it appears that the cell, under illegal presidential orders, obtained <a href="/wiki/Wiretap" class="mw-redirect" title="Wiretap">wiretaps</a> on journalists, politicians and other personalities who may have been an impediment to François Mitterrand's personal life. The illegal wiretapping was revealed in 1993 by <i><a href="/wiki/Lib%C3%A9ration" title="Libération">Libération</a></i>; the case against members of the cell went to trial in November 2004.<sup id="cite_ref-119" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-119"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>117<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-120" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-120"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>118<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>It took 20 years for the <i>affaire</i> to come before the courts because the instructing judge <a href="/w/index.php?title=Jean-Paul_Vallat&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Jean-Paul Vallat (page does not exist)">Jean-Paul Vallat</a> was at first thwarted by the <i>affaire</i> being classed a defence secret, but in December 1999 the <i><a href="/wiki/Commission_consultative_du_secret_de_la_d%C3%A9fense_nationale" class="mw-redirect" title="Commission consultative du secret de la défense nationale">Commission consultative du secret de la défense nationale</a></i> declassified part of the files concerned. The judge finished his investigation in 2000, but it still took another four years before coming on 15 November 2004 before the 16th chamber of the <i><a href="/wiki/Tribunal_correctionnel_(France)" class="mw-redirect" title="Tribunal correctionnel (France)">Tribunal correctionnel</a> de Paris</i>.
