Asbestos-laden French ship returns to home port
The giant aircraft carrier Clemenceau, once a proud symbol of France's naval might, returned to home port in Brest yesterday after failing to find a foreign country willing to dismantle its asbestos-contaminated hull.
The Clemenceau docked amid tight security at around 10:00 am (0800 GMT) at the Breton naval base in northwestern France, after a lengthy and controversial journey under tow to India and back.
