Villepin told journalists that Chirac was in a hurry to leave but that doctors had advised the 72-year-old French leader to stay there for "several days". ++ ATTENTION EDITORS NOTE FRENCH LAW REQUIRES THAT FACES OF POLICE MUST BE MASKED IN PUBLICATIONS WITHIN FRANCE ++ REUTERS/Charles Platiau JS/VP
