'King without crown'

BBC correspondent Emma Jane Kirby, in Paris, says that many French people, who believed this was an illegal and hot-headed war, have been stunned by the welcome American forces received in Baghdad on Wednesday.

The French newspaper, Liberation, has warned that President Chirac is now threatened with isolation on the international stage.

He has become, says the paper, the king of peace without a crown.

Our correspondent says France fears the US will cut it out of contracts for the reconstruction of Iraq for failing to back the coalition.
