French President Sarkozy Scuffles with Photographers in NH

HeadlineAug 06, 2007

French President Nicolas Sarkozy is on his first trip to the United States since his election, but he has refused to say whether he will meet with President Bush. Sarkozy is vacationing with his family in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire, about 50 miles from Kennebunkport, Maine, where the Bush family owns an oceanfront estate. On Sunday, Sarkozy attempted to prevent two photographers from taking pictures while he was boating with his family. According to press accounts, Sarkozy lost his temper, jumped onto the boat of the photographers, scolded them in French and briefly grabbed one of their cameras.
