Sarkozy tells EU to 'look at' its deficit figures for France

France (Thomson Financial) - French president Nicolas Sarkozy told the European Commission to have a look at its deficit figures for France following yesterday's better-than-expected figures on French growth. 'I am simply saying to Brussels, look at your figures,' Sarkozy said during a visit to the Paris region to discuss labour market reform. French growth accelerated to 0.6 percent from 0.3 percent. Economists had forecast a first-quarter growth rate of 0.4 percent.
