Iraqi President Jalal Talibani marks his first official trip to France with a four-day visit that includes meetings with French political and business leaders.


Iraqi President Jalal Talibani is getting the red-carpet treatment in France, with the Iraqi flag flying on the Champs Elysees in Paris. French President Nicolas Sarkozy is hosting a dinner for Mr. Talibani who is also expected to meet with French business leaders.


The visit underscores the turnaround in French-Iraqi relations. In 2003, France led international opposition 2 to the U.S.-led war in Iraq. But in February, President Sarkozy paid his first visit to Baghdad.


French Ambassador to Iraq Boris Bouillon says today Paris is eager to capture a share of lucrative 3 oil and reconstruction 4 deals in Iraq.


Boillon told French radio that business potential in Iraq is enormous. He said the cost of reconstructing Iraq is estimated at $600-billion, and Iraq has massive oil reserves. And he said French business expertise 5 in water, oil and infrastructure 6 development is known worldwide, and France wants to be at the forefront of reconstructing Iraq.


France and Iraq are expected to sign several agreements dealing 7 with aid, agricultural development, business and culture during Mr. Talibani's visit. French oil company Total also hopes to sign new deals to explore and drill in Iraq.
