He is French. Such desire for national greatness is hardly unusual.
1. Don't most politicians run on calling for their country to be a great nation under them?
2. France used to be a world power. It is painfull for the French to see the reality of their current second-tier status.
3. The alternative is politicians calling for a great Eurabia.

This noteworthy Christian politician has got his work cut out for him turning around Eurabia.
Half the French I speak to sound like they are already reserved to the idea of being part of the ME melting pot.
Sadly, religion and the loss of a national identity does not seem to be a concern to a great many.
The other half tend to be the people from the rural areas and the older citizens.
