France’s President Nicolas Sarkozy waves after speaking to the media in the courtyard at the Elysee Palace in Paris July 29, 2009 after the last weekly cabinet meeting for the summer break. President Sarkozy prepared on Wednesday to leave for a summer holiday at his wife’s luxurious Riviera villa, saying he had recovered from a dizzy turn while out jogging at the weekend but needed to rest. “I wanted to say to the French people that my health is good,” Sarkozy told reporters.
