French news round-up:

Le Monde: "Bush for a 2nd UN resolution," but only of a nature that would convince Saddam to totally disarm. Blair says in such a case, he can get France working with us. We shall see. However, coverage on this side of the pond suggests Bush and Blair are mainly looking for ways to let countries that were pouty get back on board with minimal embarrassment, not put them in the driver's seat in any way.

Le Figaro: "Retirement: Unions mobilize to force negotiations." On the same subject...

Libé: "111 marches to protect retirement" from supposed threats to it from the Raffarin regime; the marches were put on by unions. Raffarin speaks to the whole thing Monday.
