As Far As I'm Concerned,

National Missile Defense Is Of A Nature To Retrigger A Proliferation Of Weapons, Notably Nuclear Missiles. Everything That Goes In The Direction Of Proliferation Is A Bad Direction.

Our House Is Burning Down And We Are Blind To It. The Earth And Humankind Are In Danger And We Are All Responsible. It Is Time To Open Our Eyes. Alarms Are Sounding Across All Continents. We Cannot Say We Did Not Know! Climate Warming Is Still Reversible. Heavy Would Be The Responsibility Of Those Who Refuse To Fight It.

France Will Insist On The Need For Updated And Responsive Institutions.

It Is With Enormous Distress That France Has Just Learned Of The Monstrous Attacks There Is No Other Word For It That Have Just Struck The United States Of America. In These Horrifying Circumstances, The Entire People Of France, And I Want To Emphasize This, Stand By The People Of America. They Express Their Friendship And Solidarity In This Tragedy. Naturally, I Want To Assure President Bush Of My Total Support. France, As You Know, Has Always Condemned And Unreservedly Condemns Terrorism, And Considers That Terrorism Must Be Combated By All Possible Means.

Anything That Can Hurt The Convictions Of Another, Particularly Religious Convictions, Must Be Avoided. Freedom Of Expression Must Be Exercised In A Spirit Of Responsibility. I Condemn All Manifest Provocation That Might Dangerously Fan Passions.
