Carcassonne shootings
The Left wing media in France is trying to spin this resignation following the Carcassonne shootings into an indication of Général Cuche's disagreement with the restructuring of the French military recently announced by President Sarkozy (Army to lose 54,000).
Général Cuche has publicly rebutted this interpretation in a statement in which he said that "..as the head of the Army he carried the responsibility for "serious dysfunctions" (sounds better in French) and that all other interpretations are completely unfounded."
Honourable man.
