"For decades France denied responsibility for any health problems suffered by people who worked at its nuclear test sites in the Pacific and in Algeria. "It is the first time the French government has acknowledged a legal obligation to compensate the 150,000 military personnel and local staff who may have been exposed to radiation. "Many of the victims are suffering serious health problems. But they say the compensation plan does not go nearly far enough.
