French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin said on Monday it was vital to launch talks between Paris and Moscow on security of energy supplies.
"Between Russia, which is the world's top gas producer and the second largest oil producer, and France, which is at the forefront in this sector in Europe, it is essential to have dialogue in order to tackle the long-term challenges," Villepin told a reception for French expats at Paris' embassy in Moscow. |

Reuters Mon Feb 13, 8:14 AM ET LONDON - England looks set to follow Ireland's lead and ban smoking in pubs when lawmakers vote on Tuesday after both health and brewing industry groups joined forces to bring it in line with the rest of Britain.
