(CP)--Prime Minister Pearson flew into Paris today for talks with President de Gaulle and expressed the wish that France remain a strong and clear voice in NATO. Pearson, accompanied by Ex- ternal Affairs Minister Martin, was greeted on arrival by Prime Minister Georges Pompi- dou who said he hopes the four- day visit of the Canadian prime minister will strengthen economic and cultural ties be- tween Canada and France. Pearson said he hopes his talks with de Gaulle, to get un- der way later today, may lead "to even closer accord between us within the framework of the Atlantic alliance." Of the alliance itself, he said: "We wish the voice of this great country to remain strong and clear." : Pompidou's welcoming state- ment took special note of the historic ties between Canada and France and the 5,000,000 French- speaking Canadians "are espe- cially dear to us." He told Pearson he was sure he would witness a warm affec- tion for Canada during the prime minister's stay. Pearson's RCAF Yukon air- craft was diverted to Le Bour- get Airport, on the northern out- skirts of Paris, from fog-bound orly. However, the plane touched down within a half-hour of its expected fime. The welcoming ceremonies, including brief statements by Pearson and Pompidou and the inspection of a French Air Force guard of honor, went off smoothly.
