　　French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe says China's currency is undervalued,
and he will press Beijing on the yuan during a three-day visit beginning
Monday.
        　　Juppe told reporters in Australia Sunday that a strong yuan would help
bolster the euro, which is in danger of collapsing under the massive debt
incurred by weaker members of the European Union.
        　　During his stay in China, Juppe will meet with his Chinese counterpart
Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi and other Chinese leaders.
        　　Beijing has long maintained strict controls on its currency, prompting
criticism from the United States and other nations that it artificially holds
down its value in order to give Chinese exporters a trade advantage.
