 Nicolas Sarkozy: Leaves hospital
French President Nicolas Sarkozy has left the Val-de-Grace military hospital in Paris this morning after doctors gave him a clean bill of health. He was collapsed while jogging through simple fatigue.
While leaving hospital, Sarkozy's supermodel wife Carla Bruni-Sarkozy thanked medical staff and waved to journalists before getting into his official car and being driven off.
In a statement Sarkozy's office declared that the doctors has found no sign of heart or neurological trouble and has diagnosed the president as having suffered a minor fainting episode caused by overwork.
According to the statement issued, the doctors have suggested Mr. Sarkozy to take rest, so he has postponed a visit on Tuesday to the Mont Saint Michel abbey in Normandy but will chair Wednesday's cabinet meeting as planned.

His bodyguards and his official doctor were also jogging there. They taken him by a helicopter to Val-de-Grace military hospital.
No medical treatment has been prescribed to him.
Officials in Sarkozy's office said that the president is doing well.
