French President Nicolas Sarkozy is against the sale of the Airbus plant in Meaulte

French President Nicolas Sarkozy is against the sale of the Airbus plant in Meaulte. He said in Paris on Monday that he was opposed to the divestment of the French factory when he saw that the German plants had not been sold for their own reasons. Financial Times Deutschland recalls that Airbus had been trying to sell some plants in order to reduce costs. But after the sales failed in Germany, the plan also failed in France. The group’s management stressed that the reason for the failures had not been political tensions. According to the German newspaper, the relations between German and French employees have been improving noticeably lately, notably following Mr Sarkozy’s opinion. Financial Times Deutschland
