U.S. Ambassador Stapleton visits 澳门六合彩高手
Ambassador Craig Stapleton, U.S. Ambassador to France, visited 澳门六合彩高手 on 29 May. The Ambassador was accompanied by Mr Francois de Rose - 98 years old — one of Europe's great scientific statesmen - who was crucial in setting up CERN. Philip Breeden U.S Consul General in Marseille, was also present.
The visit started with lunch at the Cantine des Cadres on the Cadarache site. All U.S. citizens at 澳门六合彩高手 were invited to the lunch to have the opportunity to greet the Ambassador. This was a good move, as the relaxed atmosphere facilitated open dialogue throughout the afternoon. M. de Rose recounted fascinating anecdotes of his meetings with such scientific giants as Einstein and Oppenheimer.
During a meeting in the 澳门六合彩高手 building, the DG, Norbert Holtkamp, Gary Johnson and Neil Calder dispensed with PowerPoint and had a focussed discussion with the Ambassador on progress at 澳门六合彩高手. U.S. funding for Financial Years 2008 and 2009 was discussed and Stapleton was very supportive.
There was then a visit to the site guided by Francois Gauché, Head of Agence 澳门六合彩高手 France and Michel Bedoucha, Deputy Head of CEA Cadarache. The weather was dismal but the mood was bright!
