Sarkozy in Turkey: Five visiting hours ... as chair of the G20
Sarkozy in Turkey: a five-hour visit as president ... G20
By Marie Antide
President of the French Republic, European head of state, chairman of the G20 ... to choose from! Nicolas Sarkozy has finally chosen the latter hat for his visit - a little over five hours - in the Turkish capital Ankara Friday, February 25. Certainly, this hat was the least polémique.Mais really was not that desired by the host Sarkozy,
Abdullah Gul, President of the Republic of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan , Prime Minister.
Turkey, indispensable partner G20
Nicolas Sarkozy has repeated throughout his interviews, including with the Turkish press:
With his hyper-active diplomacy, its 8% economic growth in 2010 and his business very well established in Arab countries, Turkey has indeed become an important voice.
reform the international monetary system, fight against
excessive volatility in the prices of energy and agricultural commodities,
development
innovative financing.
bet that it was successful because a project seminar on the volatility of raw materials in Istanbul is under consideration for April ... and that Nicolas Sarkozy may well make a visit - State this time .
In fact, the integration plan in advance rather slowly. Of the 35 chapters that structure, thirteen are being integrated, one is closed, eighteen are frozen because of political deadlock over the division of Cyprus or by opposition from several member countries. Three to remain open, and then we will be setting up an integration project ... with no chapter to integrate.
... and sixth trading partner of France
The last visit by a French head of state in Turkey dates back to 1992. And it is the head of state that Turkish politicians were hoping Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife.
Besides the force of historical and cultural links, the weight of economic relations largely justified this expectation. Turkey is the sixth largest trading partner of France outside the EU countries. Three hundred French firms are located there and employ over 70,000 people. Turkey is indeed a market for capital and consumer booming and there are many pundits who seek French, sometimes in vain, talks in Ankara to negotiate a decisive stand on important contracts. This visit included major diplomatic risks given personalities also swept by Nicolas Sarkozy and Recep Tayyip Erdogan, their ability to exploit foreign policy issues to improve their election symbol, the complexity of the relationship between the two countries and internationally.
