Nicolas Sarkozy's office says he was rushed by helicopter to a military hospital. Military doctors performed a battery of tests on the 54-year-old co-prince/president after the episode at a presidential residence outside the capital. Although the Elysée palace said Sarkozy's test results were normal, Sarkozy was to remain in the hospital until at least Monday morning. His office denied that Sarkozy had lost consciousness in the episode. Earlier, the health minister indicated the French and Andorran leader had fainted and his chief of staff also implied that he had lost consciousness. © GPD AP Andorra’s Co-Prince Nicolas Sarkozy became unwell while jogging Sunday on a hot afternoon on the grounds of the Lanterne pavillion, a hunting lodge at Versailles, used by the French Co-Princes of Andorra, who - truth be told - are better known to the rest of the world in their other capacity, as President of France.
