WikiLeaks: US spied on three French presidents 

Latest document released by WikiLeaks  indicates that the United States wiretapped France's former presidents Jacques Chirac and Nicolas Sarkozy, as well as current leader Francois Hollande.

The spying spanned 2006 to 2012.

The most recent document is dated May 22, 2012, just days before Hollande took office, and reveals that the French leader "approved holding secret meetings in Paris to discuss the eurozone crisis, particularly the consequences of a Greek exit from the eurozone.

The new revelations are likely to cause diplomatic embarrassment for the Americans, even though allies have been spying on each other for thousands of years.
