    Jacques Chirac — former president and prime minister of France and mayor of Paris — has died, aged 86. He was the first to formally acknowledge how France deported Jews to Nazi death camps during the second world war.

    The last successful President of France, famous for opposing the US led invasion of Iraq but also for continuing French Nuclear testing in the Pacific. A mixed legacy.
