French goods face U.S. backlash
Edited for lengthFrench flags no longer are flying high and proud outside the Sofitel Hotel in midtown Manhattan. The French-owned hotel chain, part of the French hotel company Accor whose units include U.S. motel chains Red Roof Inn and Motel 6, replaced the flags with the Stars and Stripes as a peace offering to its American guests. They are used to flying the flags of other countries. Posted by: Domingo 2003-03-13 |
