However, it paved the way for the adoption of the Treaty on European Union in 2007.At age 83, he published a romance novel called “The Princess and the President,” which he said was based on Princess Diana, with whom he said he discussed writing a love story.Asked about the nature of their relationship, he said only: “Let us not exaggerate. I knew her a bit in a climate of a confidential relationship. She needed to communicate.”Earlier this year, a German journalist accused Mr Giscard d’Estaing of repeatedly grabbing her during an interview, and filed a sexual assault complaint with Paris prosecutors. His French lawyer said the 94-year-old “retains no memory” of the incident.Former French President Francois Hollande paid tribute to “a stateman who had chosen to open up to the world and was thinking that Europe was a condition for France to be greater.”Mr Hollande’s predecessor, Nicolas Sarkozy, expressed his “deep sadness”, saying Mr Giscard d’Estaing “made France be proud”.Francois HollandeGiscard D'estaingPrime MoverUnion MinisterEUBrexitThe Associated PressThe European UnionNazisBritonsPan-EuropeanPolytechnical InstituteOxfordValery Giscard D'EstaingCentral FranceCharles De GaulleHelmut SchmidtNicolas Sarkozy

There is a problem in childrearing that I think of as the jaywalker’s dilemma: It’s ridiculously inconvenient to wait for the light to change at every intersection in New York City before crossing the street if there is no oncoming traffic.
