France mulls Olympic ceremony boycott

 

 

PARIS - France's Foreign Minister Bernhard Kouchner says the European Union should consider boycotting the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics if violence continues in Tibet.

 

The head of the European parliament and media watchdog Reporters Without Borders are calling Tuesday for such a boycott. Kouchner says the proposal is "interesting."

 

Kouchner is telling reporters in Paris that the idea should be considered by EU foreign ministers meeting later this month.

 

He insists France had no plans to boycott the entire Olympic Games, saying that would not be "just."
