FRANCE-GERMANY-WWI-SARKOZY-MERKEL
(L to R) French Prime Minister Francois Fillon, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife Carla Bruni-Sarkozy arrive at the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, on November 11, 2009 during an Armistice Day ceremony, marking the 91th anniversary of the end of World War I. German leaders have attended Armistice Day events in France before -- most notably when chancellor Helmut Kohl took president Francois Mitterrand's hand in Verdun, the scene of one of the fiercest battles of the 1914-18 war. But Merkel's visit will be the first time a German leader has attended the Paris ceremonies marking the surrender of Germany after four years of trench warfare that left millions dead; AFP PHOTO FRED DUFOUR
