 BITS Report 98.5 - Nuclear Futures Part 3
This led to the suggestion by Prime Minister Alain Jupp‚ in January 1995 of the concept of Concerted Deterrence.
A second suggestion is that there could be a declaration that a widened deterrence covered some or all of the European partners of France and the UK, and that those who wished could participate in some nuclear programmes, while France and the UK retained the right to act independently.
Juppe described concerted deterrence as going beyond the "paternalism" of widened deterrence, where France would simply guarantee the security of, for example, Germany.

 History of France   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
During his first 2 years in office President Chirac's prime minister was Alain Juppé, who served contemporaneously as leader of Chirac's neo-Gaullist Rally for the Republic (RPR) Party.
However, during the legislative elections of 1997, the left won a majority in the Assembly, and Juppé was subsequently replaced by Socialist Lionel Jospin.
This right-left "cohabitation" arrangement, which ended with Jospin's resignation following his defeat in the first round of the May 2002 presidential elections, was the longest lasting government in the history of the Fifth Republic.

 Does France have socialism ?
It goes back to 1995, when the reformist ideas of Alain Jupp*, France's last conservative prime minister, provoked huge street demonstrations and, two years later, the conservatives' defeat at the polls.
And it will surely go forward to next spring's presidential election and the presumed encounter between Mr Jupp*'s Socialist successor, Lionel Jospin, and France's incumbent conservative president, Jacques Chirac.
Put simply, however loudly the bosses, caught between a slowing economy and ever-increasing foreign competition, demand flexible labour laws and lower social charges, Mr Jospin has no intention of upsetting the voters.

The coverage in Britain has concentrated almost exclusively on effect rather than cause and on political careers.
When French cities filled with protesters in 1995, the emphasis was on the 'survival' of the then French Prime Minister, Alain Jupp?, and his deficit-cutting policies.
A year later, during the French truckers' strike, the emphasis was on the inconvenience caused to British business and the alleged 'intimidation' of British truckers held up in France; typically, most of an item on the BBC Nine O'Clock News was about drivers who had tried to escape the blockade.

Since France has a heavily subsidized public sector that consumes a large chunk of the country's budget, the government naturally tried to reduce spending in this area in order to qualify for the future common currency.
It was called the Jupp Plan; in it, prime minister Alain Jupp proposed scaling back pensions and raising the retirement age, freezing wages, and increasing the amount of hours they worked.

 A Concise Encyclopedia of the European Union --C--
A Gaullist who had twice served as French premier, Jacques Chirac was elected president of the republic in 1995, reluctantly inheriting the commitment to European monetary union of his Socialist predecessor François Mitterrand at a time when economic stagnation was being exacerbated by France's efforts to meet the Maastricht convergence criteria.
A national election, called by Chirac in 1997 to gain endorsement for his policy of austerity, backfired when, despite his personal popularity, the Socialists won a majority in the Assembly, with Lionel Jospin replacing Chirac's Gaullist ally, Alain Juppé, as premier.
Jospin's old-fashioned leftist manifesto was incompatible with Chirac's centre-right economic views, and although both co-habitants of France's highest offices now proclaimed their support for the single currency, concern arose in Germany that France would be a weak link, possibly to the extent of undermining the strength of the future euro.
