Some news about the deal between France and Russia :

France and Russia have launched "exclusive negotiations" on the sale of four French warships to Moscow, French President Nicolas Sarkozy said Monday after talks with his Russian counterpart.

"We are in exclusive negotiations for four BPC Mistral," Sarkozy said, standing beside President Dmitry Medvedev, referring to a class of high-tech amphibious assault ship built by France and sought by Moscow.

"This is a symbol of trust between our countries," Medvedev said. "I hope that these negotiations will be crowned by success."

Sarkozy said the first of the four ships would be built at a French naval shipyard in St Nazaire on the mouth of Loire, and that talks were continuing over where to produce the remaining three.

The prospect of French arms sales to Russia has raised concern among some of Russia's neighbors and the United States.

Mistral poses no threat to Estonia

The sale of the French Mistral helicopter carrier to Russia has sparked concerns in Estonia. The daily Eesti Päevaleht tries to put the purchase in perspective: "What would change if a Mistral bearing a Russian flag cruised the Baltic? Practically nothing for Estonia. Russia's Baltic fleet already comprises hundreds of ships whose tasks include transporting troops and material. When a Mistral docked in St. Petersburg recently a new Ka-52 combat helicopter landed on its deck, but even this technical detail is insignificant for us. The Leningrad District is already a huge helicopter carrier right on our doorstep. If anything endangers Estonia's security it's our own state employees who have neglected the missile defence of our coastlines. It's Russia's business what ships it buys, and in addition the Mistral can also be used to help in human catastrophes."
