PARIS (Thomson Financial) - French President Nicolas Sarkozy will use a state visit to Morocco to urge Rabat to buy Rafale fighter jets from Dassault Aviation, despite reports the African country has chosen to buy less expensive F-16s from the US.'I want to propose to Morocco the best of our know-how in this field (the Rafale), and in other sectors of our defence industry,' Sarkozy said in an interview with Moroccan newspaper Assabah.greg.keller@thomson.comgk1/wjCOPYRIGHTCopyright Thomson Financial News Limited 2007.
