French President reconquers America

The French President Nicolas Sarkozy, has been welcomed today for a dinner at the White House.

President Bush gave a warm welcome to the French president who visits the US for the second since he has been elected in May.
His first vsit was unofficial, he spent three days in New-England with his family in a friend's villa.
This journey in the US was controversial, and the french media revealed the expensive holiday, the President spent in America.

This official visit, seems to be the rapprochment between the two nations. The two Presidents will discuss Iraq, Iran's nuclear programme and global warming.

Nicolas Sarkozy declared that he wants to reconquer the americans'hearts and on the other side Bush declared that they are friends and allies. It seems like Geroges Bush finds another friend in Europe de replace the fromer British Prime minister Tony Blair.

Nicolas Sarkozy, during his election campaigns has already expressed his hope to relance the political relation between France
and the US.

This visit comes just after his recent liberation of the french journalists and spanish hostess who were kept by the Ghana's authority because of their humanitarian activities in Zoe's arch.
