French ambassador addresses U.S. relations
After American and French politicians exchanged barbs over the war in Iraq, the French ambassador to the United States denounced the rivalry between the two countries to about 120 people in McKeldin Library yesterday.
France and the United States are improving a long friendship and joining forces on several international fronts, said Jean-David Levitte, French ambassador to the United States.
Meanwhile: The French know how to make a meal of it
When it comes to eating, the United States has a lesson to learn from France. I’m not talking about the kind of elaborate dinners Americans often associate with the French. Many of the meals the French eat are quick and simple. The difference is that the French eat together. They have managed to preserve a tradition that is good for everyone’s health – the family meal.
According to the French government’s Committee for Health Education, 75 percent of the French eat dinner together as a family and many French schoolchildren still go home for lunch.
French tourism down in 2003
Foreign tourists dropped by 2.6 percent to 75 million last year from 77 million in 2002 in what was a poor year for global tourism, said junior minister for tourism, Leon Bertrand.
U.S. visitors fell 18.3 percent to 2.4 million in 2003, when the dollar fell and relations between Paris and Washington soured over France’s opposition to the U.S.-led war in Iraq.
That was a big blow because U.S. tourists spend more and stay longer on average than people from other countries, according to a report detailing the figures.
