apparently chirac stormed out a conference recently because one of their captins of industry did a speach in english
--- Quote ---French President Jacques Chirac showed his temper at the EU summit when a French business leader addressed delegates in English.
He stormed out of a session when Ernest-Antoine Seilliere said he chose English "because that is the accepted business language of Europe today".
Mr Chirac told reporters on Friday he was "deeply shocked" that a Frenchman chose to address the summit in English.
Protectionism has emerged as a hot topic at the Brussels summit.
Mr Chirac's protest came when Mr Seilliere, the French president of the employers' association UNICE, said he would address the meeting in English.
According to a French official, Mr Seilliere was interrupted by Mr Chirac, who asked him in French why on earth he was speaking English.
He replied that English was the working language of that particular session and the accepted business language of Europe today.
Mr Chirac, Foreign Minister Philippe Douste-Blazy and Finance Minister Thierry Breton left the room.
Mr Chirac returned to hear the French president of the European Central Bank, Jean-Claude Trichet, address the leaders in French.
He later explained his actions, saying: "France has great respect for its language.
He added: "Faced with the efforts that we are making constantly, particularly within the European Union... I must say that I was deeply shocked to see a Frenchman speak at the council in English. That is the reason why the French delegation and I left, rather than have to listen to that."
