The France-China Axis

The French show which side of the democracy-tyranny conflict they are on.
During a state visit to China, French Premier Raffarin threw support behind a law allowing China to attack Taiwan and continued to push for a lift of the EU arms embargo.

Raffarin also signed or finalized major business deals with Beijing valued at around $3.2 billion (2.4 billion euros).

"The anti-secession law is completely compatible with the position of France,"

I really hope that this is another case of the Chinese misinterpreting the statements of visiting foreigners. Are the peace protesters going to protest this belligerent action?
