President Sarkozy wants Syria to use its influence in Lebanon
France is to suspend diplomatic contacts with Syria, French President Nicolas Sarkozy has announced.
Links will be restored only when France has proof that Syria is not blocking progress towards installing a consensus president in Lebanon, Mr Sarkozy said.
Lebanon has been without a president since November, as rival pro- and anti- Syrian factions argue over who should fill the post.
- THIS IS PROGRESS, BIT LET'S FACE IT: ASSAD SHOULD HAVE BEEN WHACKED ALREADY.
- AT LEAST THE WEST LOOKS LIKE WE'RE UNITED AND WE'RE GONNA STOP PUSSY-FOOTING AROUND.

Under Sarkozy, France is showing some backbone.
