France May Join War Effort
Politics | March 19, 2003, WednesdayDespite its opposition to a war in Iraq, France could assist a U.S.-led military coalition if Iraq used biological and chemical weapons, the French ambassador to the United States told CNN on Tuesday.

Levitte said a decision on any French participation in the war would be made by French President Jacques Chirac in such an event.
