Israel shocked by Sarkozy's pick for FM
2007-05-14
Jerusalem was both "shocked" and "disappointed" by French President-elect Nicolas Sarkozy's reported selection of Socialist Hubert Vedrine as his foreign minister over the weekend.

Vedrine is a well-known and not-much-beloved personage in Jerusalem, having served as foreign minister under prime minister Lionel Jospin from 1997-2002.

During the height of the Palestinian violence that began in September 2000, Vedrine advocated economic sanctions against Israel within the EU.
