but a movie the president of france francois hall long has been starring in a really cheesy b. movie not only is he performing tacky cliched sex scenes on the back of a moped up the shells a lizard a is missin a california the birthplace of the ray gun and the bee movie turning to america for economic advisors a classic throw up of the b. financial horror movie for what has happened is that in the past twenty years. down in an ok bill scott and jack in your mind in the past twenty years america has changed from the producer to consumer and all consumers know that when the producer names the tune the consumer has got to dance. did first law then oh that's right french man can't dance and the directors will then banks are in this b. movie i don't know if they want to be matt dillon or bob dylan ben bernanke either man of a thousand helicopters janet yellen does a tapering special effects from abacus two thousand and seven a c. one and telling crazy glue no worries francoise law it won't be too long before the director cuts the same yeah it's all like that in a b. movie. if you're

a country that france has historic ties.p the massive inflow of refugees with the clashes the ubiquitous matt return to civil war is a reality so we need to support of non -- love of god with its integrity. also jordan to receive refugees. we have convergent views not that we've never debate or partly disagree we may be allies and friends but we always respect each other's sovereignty. that is a fundamental principle. also with the economic fronts, the on america's recovery with its growth tutus the policy political choices made insteps by the united states of america iteration -- innovation and low-cost of energy, this economic recovery also is an example to be followed. that should encourage us to promote competitive also through innovation which is the meeting of my visit to silicon valley tomorrow. finally we agree with american trends to sign a partnership agreement between europe in the united states with the best of intentions to remove the non-tariff barriers that opportunities are offered to all companies so they ca

lebanon is a country with which france has historic ties.here again, france and the united states stands side by side in order to help this country resist this massive inflow of refugees with risks of clashes that are ubiquitous and this risk of return to state of war that is a reality, so we need to support lebanon and make sure it is supported in its humanity and integrity. we also helped jordan receive refugees. so on all international issues, we have convergent views and stand united, not that we ever debate or partly disagree. we always respect each other's sovereignty. that is a fundamental principle in our relation. we also on the economic front. america experiences a recovery in its growth due to the policy and the political choices made, due to steps made by the united states, the united states of america trusts innovation, energy, it also benefits from low-costs of energy, and bold decisions. this economic recovery is an opportunity for europe, but it also is an example to be followed, of reference, that should encourage us to prom

france france's incapacity to stay the. bonded to the german economy was the reason why that early at them wanted their union failed so if there is a break up of the year it will proceed beginning from the periphery and it will reach its climax when france is effectively jettisoned by germany. so what we now have the inference is we have if you want the money for station of the dict on the plate sifting underneath the eurozone causing incredible tension and bringing the unit was own while the bond markets have stabilized and all the numbers seems to be doing reasonably well nevertheless underneath the surface you have a decoupling between the german and the french exams and you can see that now france is caught in a situation where you have absolute movie no degrees of freedom that will allow france to regain the boys which is necessary in order to retain the link with the deutsche mark and the french government is can really play at the really out of leavers. they have no access to monetary policy they have the on a buffer

what we have seen in greece like you know three four years ago we start to see it in france. example you have companies thing to do to the employees you have the choice if they were going to move the factory in poland or rumania or whatever or either you accept you know or. thirty percent cut of your salary so we will you we're seeing something interesting but it's the same pattern as in greece you know you started to lowball you know to level down the salary of people and of course the statistics of the unemployment have been totally distorted you know as a united states. it's absolutely frightening really frightening and there we have our. it's actually it's what is scary because for the first you know it may be for the first time. this year may be the one with a couple of deaths you know in the next strikes we're going to have because the bridge. will go on and the minister of interior is extremely careful about that so he's fighting them also so there is when you have also don't have the power with only eighteen percent of satisfaction so he cannot go on very long twitter

and france and so much emphasis here in france being the oldest ally to the u.s. this is coming at a time that's privatal for the president, his approval ratings below 20% at home. and certainly this is something that is playing out i think with a lot more attention in the french press than the u.s. press. >> let me play a little clip, a clip of the president of the united states at the start of the meeting earlier at the white house with president hollande. >> like generations before us, we now have the task not simply to preserve our enduring alliance, but to make it new for our time. no one nation can meet today's challenges alone or seize opportunities. more nations must step up and meet the responsibilities of leadership and that is what the united states and france are doing together. >> all right, brianna, let's talk about what we expect at this news conference. i'm told that each of these presidents will open with a statement and then there will be questio questions, two from american journalists, two from french journalists. >> reporter: yes. and there ar

this is the france the franco us relationship. this is france in america. whatever book they are actually best of friends now find you take a step back a new site. their friends to meet you add up the poll ratings right now of brock obama and death and also a lot like the kit sixty three percent combined us a visa to readers who do need each other on many different fronts but that said bhatia can't deny he could be cynical about our baby having personally feel about each other in this and that their speed bumps the road bumps in the past that fall swap. but when push comes to shove it is true that france's right now out there on many of the fronts with the us just doesn't have a wheeler away right now to really be present and they said that perhaps the biggest visibility in this new relationship as far as france concerned is that role but very very presence of clear and visible role in africa in the region called the sahel northern africa. fighting in the counter terrorism fight will we know the americans just are never don't have any wheel to put boots on

both france and the united states continue to support a moderate opposition. we are continuing to provide enormous amounts of humanitarian aid. one of the problems we have right now is humanitarian access to deliver that aid, and as we speak, today un security council we will be debating a resolution that would permit much greater access for humanitarian aid workers to get food, water, shelter, clothing, fuel, to people who need it. now there is great unanimity among most of the security council. russia is a holdout. and secretary kerry and others have delivered a strong message that they cannot say they are concerned when they have starving syrians. so that is an example of the kinds of diplomatic work that we're engaging in right now. but mark nobody is going to deny that there is enormous frustration here, and i -- i think the -- the under -- underlying premise to the question may be is there additional direct action or military action that can be taken that would resolve the problem in syria? i have said out there my presidency, that i always reserve the r

the gold brought in a lot of migration here in the horrifies of france. the french built the fair mount hotel and organized our first fire companies. they built the first railroad in san francisco a steam line to admission delores. french citizens were amongst the first to form the banking institution in our city and there are french associates in our city social and religiously and patriotic and philosophical tropic and can trace their beginnings to our city. we've embraced this as cultural and trade for censures and tourism. the most visible influence of fravrns france what can be found in our monument to the city beautiful. it's a movement that was designed by the architect arthur brown who was trained in paris and our city hall was designed. some might say that still isn't france greatest influence in san francisco but might be the legacy of french bakers who brought flour do you get during the california gold rush, you know, do you get is a culinary traditions and the most important french companies were founded by french immigrants who recipe shill

the state visit between france and the u.s. you are watching "france 24."ime to get a wrapup of the latest sports action. let's start with european football. germain --nd pan st. and kerry st. germain -- arseille an -- monaco and paris st. germain had a draw. win, but we had to just couldn't. but we came away with the point. that's the most important thing. i was lucky i played well. i scored a goal. that is what i wanted to do to help the team win the game. >> there are a lot of games still. we will try to collect as many points as possible. i think monaco will be there and make it difficult for us. i am confident. the most important thing is if they lose, we are right there behind them. >> we put in a complete performance. we made them doubt themselves and managed to come away with a draw. we pushed them until the end. we could have snatched it. we are happy with how we played. schalke moved closer to the bundesliga's top three. they went on a run. it two.e their japanese fullback linked up and they picked up the 18-year-old, making it four wins in their

the perfect pattern and of course in in france we can see the extreme right. going up definitely that's for sure you have the movement from and so on for instance you have the movement from you know from some other little little part of it but they're not as strong as they were in greece don't forget a month in the pen on the country she is going to have i think she's going to make a very very interesting score on the election in march and we're going to have to rupa near the actions in may and this one is going to be really frightful because i think she's going to win on this one and she gets she's against europe right so just to be clear you do see a rise of a neo nazi element in france but the media seems to be blowing it up in a huge proportion to take attention away from the fact that the hollande government is corrupt and in bed with the bankers who have been involved in a wholesale fraud for five to ten years and in bed with the likes of flight i call financial terrorists like all men sachs and j.p. morgan that what's happening in switzerland they had a

in france. it can mean jobs and growth here in the united states, and so i'm hopeful that we can get this deal, which will be a tough negotiation. but i'm confident we can actually get it done. >> translator: france is one of the world's countries that receive the -- received the largest amount of foreign investments. of one of the world countries that is the most open to foreign capitals. and i want to strengthen and enhance this attractiveness of france. if you look at physical investments, real investments, not just financial investments, not transfers between companies, if you look at genuine investments, tangible investments in france, factories, job creation, well, in spite of a crisis, in 2013, we maebted the level of investment. in france. which bears witness to the confidence in france and france's talent, know-how, companies. and this is nothing new. there are more than 2,000 american companies that are working in france, employing 500,000 people in my country. and the united states of

ambassador to france. also the statue of liberty is similar to the one in france, and also one in lucksen bjork. on the note of the ally situation, the president had this to say. >> there are countries have always been allied have always been friends, but now trust each other, in an unprecedented manner, and this is characteristic of our personal relationship, but also our common goals. >> and we are rejoined now in a moment, we will talk to an expert on the united states french relationship, but first, mike picker rah is at the white house. he is inside that room, that is who's who of the dignitaries. i saw a second ago, it was a former secretary of state, and also another former secretary of state, everybody lining up to see this renewed restart of the relationship between the united states and france. >> yes. and it isn't lost on the french media either. i thought one of the more curious questions came from that reporter, asking if now president obama was best friends with france, as opposed to great br

it is good for france.focusing on protection and blaming anyone who invest abroad because they all bring new technologies and new house and it will be useful if they come back. we need to make efforts attractive. so invite many foreign companies which take part to activity cancel to what we call invest in france council to see what can be done to improve the situation in france including when it comes to tax visibility. this is very often referred to as the ability of rules because freedoms want his ability but american companies that have operations in france, why they invest in france, precisely because they found french society particularly welcoming for them. also question or statement made by the employers' union. what i call the responsibility factor, this has nothing to do with other statements. what is the responsibility packed? i am explaining mostly to american journalists because french journalists, the responsibility pact is about mobilizing the country to reach one goal. barack obama mentioned

welcome back to the "france 24 newsroom. the opposition in ukraine lays its latest amounts on the table today and parliament. it wants the unconditional release of jailed protesters and cuts and the president's powers. a landmark trial here in france, a former rwandan army captain is in court, linked to the massacre of 800,000 people in rwanda 20 years ago. and it is a very happy birthday for the company that turned friend into a verb. facebook is now 10 years old. on this world up cancer day, we will look at the worsening state of the disease around the world. and there is growing evidence that abuse of alcohol and sugar could be partly to blame. and the amazing story of a man who reportedly survived teen months adrift at sea. birds and ate raw drink turtle blood to survive. is his story true? 13 monthsived addressed. let's go to ukraine where a source goes to the president says he could call early elections to resolve the ongoing crisis there. that report comes from his party representative in parliament. the opposition is

during europe's scramble for africa, britain, belgium and france simply planted their flags. north of the belgium claim, france forced people to pay the costs of paris's colonial adventures. france handed the colony over to the germans and took it back again after the first world war. over time, the people of the colony fought back, tried to kick the french out, but cotton, tea, coffee, gold and diamonds won the argument. it's been more than 50 years since france left the governments driver's license tilths better than the french did in the previous eighty years. of the 4 and a half million people in a country a little smaller than texas, there is poverty, illness, division and now, great mdanger. families fleeing the central african republic by the tens of thousands as fighting between rival rebel groups, the seleca and the anti-balakas intensefies. >> there is nothing, nothing hear for us. >> in a country that has seen five coups since it's 1960 independence, this particular human certain crisis is raising alarms in the international communities. central africa is a catastr

and that's good for france. good for the united states, good for the world because we share certain values and certain commitments. and are willing to act on behalf of those commitments and values. with respect to the nsa, obviously i expressed my strong commitment to making sure that our rules and how we approach intelligence and surveillance, not just here -- not just with respect to any particular country but worldwide, that we do it in a way that takes into account the incredible changes in technology and the new capacities that have evolved over the last several years. and the first place that we look to in terms of how do we make sure that our rules are compatible with partnerships and our friendships and alliances was were countries like france that have been long-time allies of ours and closest partners, it's not actually correct to say that we have a quote/unquote, no spy agreement with great britain. that's not actually what happens. there's no country where we have a no-spy agreement. we have like eve

france supported the strategy. three, africa, french troops are on the ground in countries like mali and the central after can republic fighting islamists and backed by u.s. intelligence and airlift support. four, trade ties, as part of the e.u., france is negotiating with u.s. on an e.u.-u.s. trans-atlantic trade deal. if this deal were to some to fruition it could establish the largest free trade zone in the world. as the president of the european commission tells us, calling it a quote unquote, game changer. while the french president was in town he visited montselly, home of thomas jefferson. on tuesday night he received the royal treatment at a state dinner in his honor. france's president came stag to the event as he was without his longtime partner and without his latest squeeze. question, what is driving this reproachment between france and the united states? >> both of them want to deal in foreign policy and obama because he's pretty much blocked here in washington, d.c., but i will say, this hollande is 2

i've just been a black border in france. oh and the rwanda genocide that didn't exist in france. use a black hole the month has been parliamentary commission to testify. the idea that all was done. distraction for intoxication from not looking good there. bt of the event not looking good. i'm trying to understand what happens on the ground so that they can fix intoxication the station up and stupid stuff like or would even crash the man who leads the beginning that marked the beginning of the genocide which is not interested in the beginning but we did them out to work trying to understand really what happens in ronda and ninety four we've done on the proceeds would be the first occasion friends to make the score was not being done to know. it's very important step the human rights advocates pointing out that some youth had trials of rwandan genocide suspects in the list or belgium switzerland norway netherlands canada and is one now going on in germany it couldn't have happened earlier. it's realistically in political terms. france is encrypted using the country is in the foreig

has started in france. former army captain is in court, charged with accomplicety in the atrocity and crimes against humanity. police in south africa have used rubber bullets and stun grenades to disburse striking miners. and the stoppage is costing the country around 36 million-dollar as day. and the british government has released results of an inquiry into weather british soldiers were involved in the massacre. foreign minister says margaret thatcher's government advice indian leaders on the raid, but says the advice has a limited impact. now, let's focus on our top story now, and the rwanda again side happened in just over 100 days between april and june in 1994. most of the 800,000 ruin danes who were killed were tootsies murdered by the majority hoot toos. and is is author of the book and the accidental again side." again side. genocide. >> so a significant trial, because france has long been aused of supporting the again side call regime in rwanda, does this in your opinion mark a shift in any way in

in france everything goes up. unemployment rate is far more than 10%, growth rate is about 0.9, which means that rate of unemployment will still go up. we have never of that heard of. so french people thinks maybe he should follow obama, who is having a better economy, shaping up in a better way right now. >> christian, the issue of hollande's personal life be as much of a factor for him if the economy were better in france right now? >> yes, definitely. the thing which is positive, definitely, between united states and france is we can rely upon the military help, logistical help of the united states as we could see and great britain, too, in the region when we have to fight in north africa, in mali, central africa today. we are all working together. but i think it's great that we are all together fighting against terrorism but at the same time when i read this tribute written by president obama and president hollande for "the washington post" when i heard senior hollande saying it's great we've been in nato toge

also a reference that is current in france.o when it comes to equality and how far can you go when it comes to freedom? and the revolutionaries want the independence of america, those who want it a republic in france have this thing in common. they want to be as old as possible when it comes to freedom and liberty and they want it as respectful as possible when it comes to equality. this is precisely what the american dream is made of and also what the french dream is made of even though many have their own little dream but the mission remains exactly the same. we want to be together again. >> we have a couple of questions each. where is mark? there he is. "new york times." >> good afternoon. both of you talked about syria in your opening remarks and i wanted to ask a bit about that. the latest round of the geneva 2 talks have proven to be as unproductive as the first round was. the chemical weapons agreement that you both alluded to has removed some weapons but by all accounts it's a small fraction of the stockpile the asad re

france from the world recovery. president obama, do you think that mr. hollande doesn't do much to encourage american investors to invest in france. mr. hollande, you will meet businessmen so then you are a socialist and think the world of finance is an enemy and tax wealth at 75%. how on earth are you going to convince businessmen here and what will you tell the head of the employer's union in france who said here in washington he wanted no compensation for the labor cost cuts? >> it's good to know that, you know, reporters have something in common in france and the united states. you know. >> translator: these would be? which one would these be? >> i think that all of us were traumatized by the crisis of 2007-2008. and you know, united states has to take responsibility for its role in that crisis. we made some quick decisions that allowed us to stabilize the financial markets and begin the long process of recovery, but it was painful and it was slow and you know, it was only because of the incredible resilience of

during europe's 1,900th century scramble for africa, belgium, france, sat their flags in the middle of africa. france took over congo and then handed the colony over to the germans and then took it back after the first world war. they tried to kick the french out but cotton, tea, gold and diamonds won the argument. it's been 150 years since france left, but the governments of central african republic did little bit than the french did. over 4.5 million people in a country smaller than texas there is poverty, illness, division and now great danger. families are fleeing the central african republic by the tens of thousands. [ gunfire ] as fighting between rival rebel groups the is he electric can and the anti-about anti-balaka. >> there is nothing here for us. >> in a country that has seen five coups since it's 1960 independence this particular humanitarian crisis has "s" raising alarm in the international community. >> central africa is a humanitarian catastrophe. there is ethnic cleansing taking place and it must be stopped. >> descending into chaos for close to a year, the seleka divi

both france and the u.s. are vigorously pushing iran to limit its nuclear program. >> we agree that next week's talks will be an opportunity for iran to show it's serious about a -- that it's nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only. >> two. syria. president hollande was the most vocal supporter of the president's plan to strike with aircraft launch missiles to destroy the al-assad's regime's chemical weapons stockpile. but it worried the u.s. congress, including the brits, who backed away from it. but hollande supported the strategy. three. africa. french troops are on the ground in countries like mali and the central african republic, fighting islamists and backed by u.s. intelligence and airlift support. four. trade ties. as part of the eu, the european union, france is negotiating with the u.s. on a trans- atlantic trade deal. if this deal would come to fruition, it would establish the largest free trade zone in the world, as the president of the european commission tells us, calling it a, quote/unqu

but france, france is one that has evidently stood up already, with deploying upwards of 2,000 troopsy will be there for the long-term understanding that they eventually have to be that guarantor for this long-term stability of central african republic, but we must also address the interests and the inclusion of the neighbors to central african republic. if we are to have a lasting solution for stability and development in the c.a.r. and with chad on the border with the democratic republic of congo, with uganda, cameroon, and south sudan impacted to one degree or another. or impacting the central african republic, those countries must be incorporated in to a stability and long-term plan for the c.a.r. >> the recent era has seen a lot of african civil wars, but it's also seen continental groups playing a very important role in calming things down. can africa do more of this on its own? or are we inevitably going to see french troops, british troops, in african capitals in the coming years? >> just a couple of things. first, you have seen regional bodies being involved in the solution o

yet there's a lot of taxes and france. so there's no point in staying in france for a company like yahoo the french were not the only ones to complain about this the uk i'm everybody's complaining about that except if you like ireland. and at this point. what's the outcome in seeking to continue on this on on this one forever you will what can we expect this trip especially when it all sits down with eric schmidt approval to extend to mystic maybe this is a good starting point the same tax all of the year. maybe they should you need to take him to come this problem once and for all and then settle this problem and get it as european and this is maybe a great opportunity. we'll see. mr dickie the increase as a mom for being over forty min ago i think everybody knows i'm a full day it is case going to silicone valley meeting with the with the ceos can be to take away that she thinks the french president one could be pretty embarrassing i mean as things often aren't as normal. he could look silly. which is something that happ

france's president alon is accused of family phobia another major blow to his reputation as thousands marched against laws supporting same sex marriage. and fractured ukraine western governments for to gather and a plan for the protests plagued country while energy giants crave some of the chill gas prospects. which are here national coming to you live from moscow i'm marina josh welcome to the program teacher and policeman are dead after a hostage incident at a moscow school the gunman who starred to have been one of the school's straight a students briefly took more than twenty students hostage archies margaret how is outside of school in the north of the capital was more for us well maybe to tell us what's the feeling on the ground what's the atmosphere there is everyone feeling safe now. well it does appear to be called mail and things have definitely calmed down from earlier this morning when around eleven o'clock a young man a young shooter did walk into this school in northeast moscow and he did kill one a security officer and one teacher and he entered another security officer

the deal for france france info from afar that emotion. that's the fact that the petitions. and nancy says it is the bringing in the kitchen as expressed in civic and business people but it was not a good deal of the equity markets and state it is. mom and sisters have got involved i don't sink in said foreign minister. to tell the wood and you should be doing on the upswing in the pizza on non government on issues in the procession for them to sexson has been terrible and the kids off with a huge deal was going to be putting all of its i think it's a mistake we shouldn't do again from a marketing perspective of linking of body tissue say i'm fixing his deal. that's why what what what. racing back to this end he was and two sons and seeks finds. i knew everyone was happy that everyone you meet me face to the one of the biggest strengths of crosses that is the european union. and we have taken down trade body is in the opinion and i think that has improved business model. and i believe that we have to build them up so we would have to give credit where credit is due and love

but american companies that have operators in france ask them why they stay, why they invest in france it is because they find it particularly welcoming. you also asked me a question on a statement that was made by the employer's union on what i call that responsibility factor. this has nothing to do with the declaration of a statement. what is the responsibility packed i'm explaining mostly to the american journalists because the french journalists are familiar with it. the responsibility packed is about mobilizing the entire country to reach one goal. barack obama mentioned the american economy following the crisis. there comes a point when after no deal you have to be stronger than you were before the ordeal committee for the crisis. you need to be up to mobilize more strength. you need to be able to make sure that the economy focuses not on what it was before, but this is precisely what is at the very root of this recovery in the american economy. companies mobilized their workers to go ahead and this is precisely the responsibility packed that we have mobilized the labor markets,

france, of course. and so i propose a toast.our friend and partner who all of our friends from france or here today. god bless america and long live the alliance between our great nations. >> here here. >> cheers.
