Sarkozy has issued a statement:

“The remarks attributed by the newspaper Haaretz to the president of the French Republic concerning Sen. Obama’s positions on Iran are groundless.

This story isn’t even coming out of the French cabinet, so it’s actually a leak of a leak or a leak of Israeli espionage if not made up out of whole cloth.
