Paris, June 24 (AFP) President Nicolas Sarkozy scored a political coup with a government shake-up bringing in the nephew of France's late Socialist leader Francois Mitterrand, but critics accused him today of sidelining women and minorities. The French leader, who set out a roadmap for his new government in a speech to parliament on Monday, gathered his ministers for their first meeting today, urging them to be "bold reformers." Prime Minister Francois Fillon stays at the helm, but six ministers were fired while two left to take up European parliament seats, including Rachida Dati, the glamorous emblem of Sarkozy's drive to promote ethnic minorities.
