SUBJECT: MEDIA REACTION REPORT - DeLay Indictment - Turkey 
PARIS - Friday, September 30, 2005 
 
(A) SUBJECTS COVERED IN TODAY'S REPORT: 
 
1. DeLay Indictment 
2. EU Membership Negotiations with Turkey 
 
(B) SUMMARY OF COVERAGE: 
 
The French Prime Minister's monthly press conference dominates 
front pages and editorials today. De Villepin addressed the 
issue of employment, highlighting the drop in unemployment 
figures for the fifth month in a row, as well as his about- 
face in plans to privatize the ferry operator SNCM. Left-of- 
center Liberation accuses Villepin of "Copping Out" on its 
front-page with regard to the SNCM and business-oriented La 
Tribune says "Villepin Forced to Change Course." On the lay- 
offs planned in France by Hewlett-Packard, right-of-center Le 
Figaro's editorial points out de Villepin's `punitive' 
statements are antithetical to his wish to boost foreign 
investment. 
 
Liberation reports that the Islamists belonging to a group 
calling itself Ansar al-Fath, arrested in the suburbs of Paris 
on Monday, admitted to preparing acts of terrorism that were 
to be carried out in the Paris subway, at one of Paris' 
airports and at the headquarters of the DST (the French DHS). 
 
Left-of-center Liberation calls Tom DeLay "The Right Hand That 
May Handicap Bush." (See Part C) 
 
With only a few days left until negotiations open with Ankara 
on EU membership for Turkey, left-of-center Liberation's 
editorial puts the accent on a "divided Europe that cannot 
even agree on the issues to be discussed with the Turks." Le 
Figaro puts the emphasis on the "war of wills" between London 
and Vienna. "The UK is determined to neutralize Austria, the 
only European country left that openly wishes to prevent 
negotiations from opening with Turkey on Monday." (See Part C) 
 
Le Figaro reports on FM Douste Blazy's trip to Egypt putting 
forward that "his message was aimed as much, if not more, at 
French Muslims as to the Egyptians themselves. preparing the 
way for a battery of anti-terrorism laws that are under 
discussion in Paris." 
 
Left-of-center Le Monde's New York correspondent Corinne 
Lesnes analyzes Karen Hughes' trip to the Middle East 
sarcastically portraying Hughes' astonishment that the "whole 
world does not want to live like Americans do." 
 
Right-of-center Le Figaro carries a profile of the newly 
appointed Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts. Washington 
correspondent Philippe Gelie calls Roberts an "almost perfect 
choice for Bush. He is intellectually nimble and ideologically 
elusive. Roberts brilliantly succeeded the test of the 
hearings before the Senate Committee, and after two months of 
questioning the Committee knew as little about him as on the 
first day. 
 
Economic right-of-center Les Echos' Gilles Senges asks "Is the 
Airbus A350 worth a trade war with the U.S.?" "Airbus is on 
the verge of officially announcing the launching of the 
manufacture of the A350. An announcement that will shatter the 
moratorium between France and the U.S. and restart the latent 
trade war between Europe and the U.S." 
 
(C) SUPPORTING TEXT/BLOCK QUOTES: 
 
DeLay Indictment 
 
"The Right Hand That May Handicap Bush" 
 
Left-of-center Liberation's Pascal Riche writes (09/30): "This 
is really the last thing that George Bush needed. For the 
Republicans the indictment of Bush's best ally in the House is 
one more set back added to a long list that includes the 
`vietnamization' of Iraq, the fiasco surrounding the recovery 
efforts after hurricane Katrina, the soaring price of gas, the 
catastrophic budget deficit and the President's approval 
rating that has taken a nose-dive. The atmosphere in 
Washington is one of corruption, of the end of a reign, an 
atmosphere that needs to be dissipated before the November 
2006 elections. DeLay may be one of Bush's best allies on the 
Hill but if he remains in the spotlight too long he will 
become very cumbersome. 
 
EU Membership Negotiations with Turkey 
 
"Bazaar" 
Left-of-center Liberation's editorial by Patrick Sabatier 
(09/30): "The Turks are as divided as the Europeans on the 
question of their membership to the EU. The europhiles among 
them see this membership as a step towards modernizing their 
country and as a possibility for future prosperity. But the 
nationalists, whether politically from the left or the right, 
cultivate a sort of europhobia. Turkish europhobes are gaining 
sway, on a par with Turkophobe Europeans. And yet no one can 
deny that economically EU membership is in Turkey's interest. 
Just as, from a strategic point of view, it is in the EU's 
interest to anchor Turkey to the continent."
