France's minister of industry and growth, Arnaud Montebourg, on Wednesday accused the head of a US tyre company of being "extremist" and "insulting" for his derision of French working practices and the country's manufacturing sector. …

He concluded: "Rest assured, you can count on me to monitor … with redoubled vigilance the import of your tyres to France."
