The French President, Jacques Chirac, met with US President, George Bush, on 18 September 2001 and said France was determined to support the US campaign against 'the absolute evil of terrorism'. However, Mr Chirac disputed whether the word 'war' should be used to describe the campaign and only committed France to discussing the means to be deployed against terrorists.
