President Nicolas Sarkozy left France on Monday for a short visit in United States, which will last until Wednesday.

Sarkozy will have dinner with President Bush on Tuesday evening at the White House and an appearance in front of the Congress on Wednesday. This reunion comes out from both countries’ desire to have better political relations.

The relation between U.S. and France divided during the presidency of Sarkozy’s predecessor, Jacques Chirac who was not an adherent to U.S. interfering in the war from Iraq in 2003. Relations seem to be better now, President Sarkozy supporting the Iran’s nuclear program.

"Nicolas Sarkozy is very American. His style is very American. His campaign style, his governing style and his personal style are more American than previous French presidents," American University of Paris political science Professor Steven Ekovich said in a statement for Voice of America. He also believes that France could become a very important American partner in Europe as Britain was under former Prime Minister Tony Blair.

"This visit will establish that France and the U.S. are back together after the 2003 crisis,” French president’s spokesperson, David Martinon told the reporters in Paris on November 2, Bloomberg reports. The nuclear program from Iran will be the main topic of the two presidents’ discussions as the U.S. ambassador in Paris, Craig R. Stapleton told in an interview on Paris television on November 2.

Another topic of their meeting would be France’s proposal to play a more significant role in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. After President Charles de Gaulle withdrew French forces in 1966, France has been outside NATO’s integrated military command.

United States seem to be a supporter of Franco-American solidarity and believe that France is one of their strong allies.

"Will France rejoin the integrated Nato military command which it left under de Gaulle?

"I hope that they do, under terms that are satisfactory to the alliance as a whole, because I think we face common threats - domestically, in Europe, as well as internationally - and I think that we are stronger if we stick together,” the former US ambassador to the UN John Bolton said.

Sarcozy expressed his admiration for the U.S. personally on an interview for the American television network:

 "That's the reason why I like the US - you can be called Schwarzenegger and be governor of California. You can be called Madeleine Albright and be secretary of state, Colin Powell or Condi Rice can succeed. That's a free country, that's a democratic country, a country that gives a chance to each and every one of its children,” BBC News reported.
