Obama, Hollande seek to show revamped relationship
President Barack Obama and French President Francois Hollande meet Tuesday at the White House, and the leaders will emphasize a revamped partnership that has slowly improved after hitting a low point a decade ago, when France opposed the U.S-led conflict in Iraq. 
         
Now, with Americans weary of war, it's France that has been staking out a more muscular military posture in some parts of the world.               

France took the lead in recent military endeavors in Libya and Mali, while the U.S. contributed equipment and assistance with logistics and intelligence. When the U.S. considered a military strike against Syria last year, France was the only European ally ready to join that effort.           

A military honor guard and 21-gun salute will greet Hollande when he arrives at the White House.
