French-German alliance against US opposed
| Wiirzburg, West Germany
Opposition leader Franz Josef Strauss told French President Valery Giscard d'Estaing Wednesday that West Germany and France should not build their partnership against the United States. In a speech welcoming the visiting French head of state to Bavaria, Mr. Strauss, who is the state's conservative premier, said the Franco-German relationship could not be "a two-state union against a wider European association or confronting the United States."
