Former President Jacques Chirac visits the exhibition Arts de Chine at the Musee du President Jacques Chirac in Sarran, France, June 11, 2011. The 78-year-old Chirac, conservative president of France for 12 years until 2007, said earlier this week he could not trust and had little in common with his conservative successor Nicolas Sarkozy, who is widely expected to run for a second term. During a museum visit where Chirac and Hollande went on a good-humoured walkabout together, the former president said he would plump for the left-winger unless an old friend, Alain Juppe, currently foreign minister under Sarkozy, were to run for president. 'I can say I would vote for Hollande,' Chirac said. Photo by Patrick Bernard/ABACAPRESS.COM
