Sounds like Sarko had a little too much pre-victory toasts... What’s this with a Mediterranean Union????
That surprised me, too. Never heard that phrase before. I interpreted it as olive branch to the Muslims (N. Africans, Lebanese, etc. as citizens of former French colonies). I don't think he's talking about a formal organization like the EU. (It might also be related to Turkey's attempt to enter the EU.) I could be wrong--just my first impressions.
