No, the prediction is that the endgame in all this is that all the deficit countries including France will end up on the other side of the fracture from Germany when the Euro blows up. (Cue in the discussion of Jerome's Niemöller moment)
The only reason why France migth be included in "core Europe" is the political prejudice of the Francogerman axis, but if France insists on hoisting itself to a new faux gold standard alongside Germany and the Netherlands, their economy will first suffer a private debt bubble and then get blown out of the water in the next business cycle.
