Betancourt lands in France

Posted on: July 05, 2008

French Colombian politician Ingrid Betancourt landed in Paris to an emotional welcome from President Nicolas Sarkozy.

The president had made her release from captivity in the Colombian jungle a foreign policy priority.

Betancourt was rescued on Wednesday by the Colombian military after spending six years as a captive of leftist guerillas. France was not involved in the rescue.
