President Sarkozy reminded us again when he addressed us this morning that we cannot build the world of the 21st century with the institutions of the 20th century. [highlighted result]

T Manuel: World economy crisis
One of the great sources of ballast in the world economy has been the rapid economic growth of China, which has contributed on average 20 percent of world growth in the last 5 years. Chinese GDP growth slowed to 9.0 percent in the third quarter 2008 from 11,9 percent in 2007 and 11,6 percent in 2006. These commitments will help to raise the economy's growth rate in the present as investment spending is maintained, and in the future contribute to rising potential growth of the economy.
