A lot of European countries use English rather than French as a second language, particularly the Germans, Dutch and the Nordic countries. English has also replaced Russian and German as the second language among the Eastern European countries. If Britain leaves the EU I don't see any of these countries switching over to French any time soon. And don't worry Kato the Koreans are not going to start using French as a second language either!
