PARIS – The Elysee Palace, on the very first day of the French EU Presidency, announced that the French President Nicolas Sarkozy has moved the dates of his Irish trip from July 11th to July 21st. The trip, according to the Press Release is taking place in order to find a solution to the Irish refusal to ratify the Lisbon Treaty. The same source specified that Mr Sarkozy has decided to delay his trip because of the heavy load of his timetable.

The French President is due to leave Paris on July 6th for the G8 Summit in Japan. Following his return, on Thursday July 10th he is due to present the priority objectives of the EU Presidency to the European Parliament while on July 13th he has organised a ‘summit’ in Paris to launch his project ‘The Mediterranean Union’.

Carla Brunii, Sarkozy’s wife, will, on July 11th, launch her third album entitled ‘As if nothing was’…..!!! [A rougher translation would be As if nothing happened]!

On June 20th the French President had, during the Council of Ministers in Brussels, announced that he would come to Ireland during the month of July “to discuss with the Irish” and find solutions to the Referendum NO of that country well before the Euroipean Summit next October.

Nicolas Sarkozy reporte du 11 au 21 juillet son voyage en Irlande

PARIS - Le président français Nicolas Sarkozy a reporté du 11 au 21 juillet le voyage qu'il doit faire en Irlande pour tenter de trouver une solution au refus irlandais de ratifier le traité de Lisbonne, a annoncé mardi l'Elysée au premier jour de la présidence française de l'UE.

M. Sarkozy a décidé de retarder ce voyage pour "des raisons d'emploi du temps surchargé", a-t-on expliqué de même source.

Le président français part le 6 juillet pour le sommet du G8 au Japon, doit présenter les priorités de la présidence française de l'UE devant le Parlement européen de Strasbourg dès son retour du Japon le jeudi 10 juillet, avant de participer le 13 juillet au sommet qui doit lancer à Paris son projet d'Union pour la Méditerranée (UPM).

L'épouse de M. Sarkozy, Carla Bruni, doit par ailleurs lancer le 11 juillet son troisième album, intitulé "Comme si de rien n'était".

Le président français avait annoncé le 20 juin lors du Conseil européen de Bruxelles qu'il se rendrait en juillet en Irlande pour "discuter avec les Irlandais" et trouver des solutions au "non" au référendum de ce pays, en vue du sommet européen d'octobre.

To brown envelope Willie O'Dea for persuading naive Irish forces to help do the work of French imperialism in Chad and take the spotlight off France a bit. Lots of Uranium around there and in the Central African Republic. Funny co-incidence that.

Here's some background about the CAR arm of French imperialism. (CAR is beside Chad, >78% of French energy generation is nuclear)

"France violates human rights in the way it handles terrorism-related cases, a Human Rights Watch (HRW) report says."
"When you do see a lawyer, it's only for 30 minutes, and the lawyer usually has very little information about your case and the charges against you, and can really do little more than make sure you don't have any broken bones"

"That all this is down to the casting of ballots in a free and fair election at the same time as the EU is frothing about the electoral habits of one Robert Mugabe is a delicious irony. There is, but for the violence deployed by Mugabe's henchmen, little difference between insisting that the Irish vote again until they get the answer right and Robert Mugabe holding a second vote and insisting that Zimbabweans elect the 'right' man, such has become the democratic deficit in the EU."

No need to vote again says Sarko. Lets hope that Cowen agrees with him.

-'lost in the noise of his broadside against Mr Mandelson, Sarkozy said, for instance, of the Irish No vote, that "the Irish shouldn't be asked to vote again on the treaty - it would look as if we were trying to ram it through against their will"-'
