França, Sempre Ela

Se a França não caga na entrada, certamente ela caga na saída. No FT:
French attempts to sidestep Nato at the outset of military operations against Libya have divided the international coalition enforcing a no-fly zone over the country, western diplomats said.
The French moves, which western diplomats said included launching the first attack on Libya without fully informing its allies, angered US and UK officials and are hampering efforts to transfer command of the operation to Nato, officials said. Relations grew so tense on Monday that French and German ambassadors to Nato walked out of a meeting of the North Atlantic Council, the alliance’s decision-making body, after Anders Fogh Rasmussen, secretary-general, criticised Paris for impeding Nato involvement and Germany for not actively participating.

  1. Artigo muito ruim. Foi geopolítica de má qualidade como essa aí que botou os US e UK na situação deplorável em que se encontram no Iraque e no Afeganistão.
    A The Economist é usualmente muito crítica de Sarkozy, mas pelo menos mostra objetividade (e muito mais conhecimento do terreno) que esse timeco de várzea do FT neste artigo aqui:
