"Nicolas Sarkozy wins French Presidency"

The new president of France is pro-American?

PARIS - Nicolas Sarkozy, a blunt and uncompromising pro-American conservative, was elected president of France Sunday with a mandate to chart a new course for an economically sluggish nation struggling to incorporate immigrants and their children.

...

"The people of France have chosen change," Sarkozy told cheering supporters in a victory speech that sketched out a stronger global role for France and renewed partnership with the United States.

Hmm. It would be pretty weird if France was suddenly our friend again. Let's see how this new president does.
