Oh my. Just saw this at Al Jazeera:
French President Nicolas Sarkozy called Binyamin Netanyahu, Israel's prime minister, a "liar" in a conversation with his US counterpart, Barack Obama, accidentally broadcast to journalists at last week's G20 summit in the French resort of Cannes.
"I cannot bear Netanyahu, he's a liar," Sarkozy told Obama, unaware that the microphones in their meeting room had been switched on.
Reporters in a separate location listened in to a simultaneous translation as Obama responded, according to a French interpreter: "You're fed up with him, but I have to deal with him even more often than you."
France's Sarkozy called Netanyahu 'a liar'
Snip
Quel horreur, when will pols check to see if the mike is off? What a mess. Furious backpedaling by the ever suave Sarkozy or the Minister for Foreign Affairs fairly soon is my guess.
