BRAZIL: Brazil and France find common ground
Brazil's President Lula da Silva met French President Nicholas Sarkozy in
the Amazonian border town of Saint Georges-de-l'Oiapock, French Guiana, on 12
February to discuss the strengthening of the "strategic alliance"
between France and Brazil. Although the countries' military ties are probably
the most important aspect of their relationship, there were many other issues on
the agenda at the meeting between the two heads of state.
