Cameron, Sarkozy enjoy friendly summit

British Prime Minister David Cameron and French President Nicolas Sarkozy signed a nuclear power agreement Friday at a friendly summit in Paris. Cameron even gave what appeared to be close to an endorsement of Sarkozy in the upcoming French presidential election, The Independent reported. The most recent polls show Sarkozy running behind Socialist Francoise Hollande. "I think that he has done great things for his country," Cameron said at a news conference with a smiling Sarkozy. "I wish my friend well in the battle that lies ahead." Cameron, however, suggested his support might do Sarkozy more harm than good with French voters. The summit was postponed from November, when France and Britain were divided by disagreements over European economic policy. The agreements signed Friday include one involving the French nuclear power company Areva. That pact is expected to create hundreds of British jobs. The leaders also signed a letter of intent for development of a more advanced military drone and agreed to move more quickly on a joint military command and control center. Sarkozy and Cameron also said that future defense cooperation will involve nuclear equipment, including joint nuclear submarine patrols.
