Chirac congratulates Bono and Geldof
French President Jacques Chirac congratulated rocker Bob Geldof and Bono for their tireless campaigning against poverty in Africa, as they met at the G8 Summit in Gleneagles, Scotland.
Chirac was impressed with former Boomtown Rat Geldof's organisation of 10 Live 8 concerts around the world, which aimed to raise awareness of poverty on the continent and said the gigs were particularly helping younger generations become aware of the issues.
