Sarkozy tours Jordan with girlfriend Carla Bruni

French President Nicolas Sarkozy toured the ancient Jordanian ruins of Petra today, hand-in-hand with his new girlfriend, supermodel-turned-singer Carla Bruni.

Sarkozy is on a private visit to Jordan but did meet King Abdullah II Friday at his residence in the port city of Aqaba and talked about the Middle East situation, including the peace process and the political deadlock in Lebanon.
