New globalization: Sarkozy urges UK to join France in creating stronger Europe

President Nicolas Sarkozy appealed to Britain to work with France yesterday to create a stronger Europe and a "new globalisation" built on freedom, equity and responsibility. In a speech to the joint houses of parliament during a state visit to Britain, the French leader called for a "new Franco-British fraternity" to pursue the two countries' extensive common interests in the world, including reform of global governance.
