Chirac is a lifelong [[Gaullist]] who contributed greatly to France's decision not to participate in the [[Iraq War]], though sent troops to help overthrow the [[Taliban]] in [[Afghanistan]]. (Like Presidents [[Bill Clinton]] and [[George W. Bush]], he did not fight in the [[Vietnam War]].) He has been quoted as saying that the [[free market]] is not the solution to all problems.[http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2007/03/12/europe/EU-POL-France-Chiracs-Future.php]
