<The EU is hopelessly divided > From the French point of view, France is the EU (with the compliant side-kick Germans) . Everyone else is the periphery. Expect the French to try to marginalise the Brits, maybe ask whether the Brits really should be in the EU at all. Maybe the Brits would be more comfortable in NAFTA. Along with abolishing the death penalty, and making it impossible for any employer to fire any employee, EU applicants will have to "get in line" with France's anti-U.S. alliance. Expect France to be equally unhelpfull re fixing Iran, Syria, N. Korea.

What value can the word of a PM have, (Chirak, then), after we all know that he gave two nuclear reactors to Saddam ? He should be spending this week-end in one of Saddam's palaces, to convince the Great Maniac to fall on his sword... and to help him some.
