A very charming political survivor. He could wriggle himself out of any mess with a smile. A real Teflon.

A very pragmatic conservative.

He began his presidency by firing nuclear weapon tests in the Atolls. Tough as nails.

The real last European counterweight to American hegemony.

An amateur connoisseur of African, especially ancient Benin art. Moved African and Oceanian art to a better museum at Quai d'Orsay in Paris.

RIP.

I remember 'Old Europe' versus 'New Europe'. Everyone must leave one day. Sad but that's the fact.

Nicolas Sarkozy's predecessor...

In the area of corruption scandals, they have a lot in common. Both administrations were never really totally free from controversy. But Sarkozy's was worse off in my opinion.

But, you've got to give it to him. These guys(Chiraq and the rest) shaped global geo-politics back then and the actions they took back in those days are still relevant in world affairs till date.

As in his reign was what turned Nigerians to refugees...too bad

Yeah but we are used to it....that's why nobody wants to challenge it

I think the abacha one was too much of a shock

Well i wouldn't like to wish death on anybody but at least we need this country to get back to normal.

Chirac was the first President of France to take responsibility for the deportation of Jews during the Vichy regime. In a speech made on 16 July 1995 at the site of the Vel' d'Hiv Roundup, where 13,000 Jews had been held for deportation to concentration camps in July 1942, Chirac said, "France, on that day, committed the irreparable". Those responsible for the roundup were "4500 policemen and gendarmes, French, under the authority of their leaders [who] obeyed the demands of the Nazis. ... the criminal folly of the occupiers was seconded by the French, by the French State"
