We have to reduce our deficits, cut spending, improve our countries' competitiveness to rediscover growth
But now Nicolas Sarkozy's politics, which consist of presenting France as Germany's alter ego, have collapsed
Fundamentally it changes nothing
Nicolas Sarkozy made keeping the triple-A a political objective and even called it an obligation for his government
we hope to carry on working together for the reconstruction of Europe

I don’t understand your question...could you please ask a question that I can understand?
My choice has been made clear. I said I could not back Nicolas Sarkozy. Bayrou needs to tell voters where he stands
It would be better to have a tax on financial transactions that covers the whole of the euro area, Europe and the world ...

Is that something Nicolas Sarkozy, very probably running for re-election, is ready to put up with, while French people remain against the idea of GM crops by a very large majority?
