PARIS — Airbus clinched an agreement to sell 160 planes to China on Monday after high-level political intervention rescued Beijing talks that had become stuck on a Chinese offer to buy just 30 jets, French officials said. During a state visit to China by French President Nicolas Sarkozy, the sale of 30 planes, one-fifth the number sold by Sarkozy's predecessor, Jacques Chirac, would have been seen as a flop. In Beijing, Sarkozy and Chinese President Hu Jintao looked on as Airbus and China's state buying agency signed a "framework" deal that could lead to an order for Airbus jets worth $16. 7 billion. The framework deal covered 150 planes, while a separate deal involved a further 10 Airbus A330-200s for China Southern airline. Aides said French companies had negotiated deals worth 20 billion euros ($29. 72 billion), a record for a state visit from France. The figure of 160 planes is a sensitive matter to both China and visiting leaders who vie to oversee the best deals. China has twice bought 150 planes from Airbus or Boeing to mark similar visits by Chirac, a bitter rival to Sarkozy, and President Bush. Airbus is owned by the multinational European Aeronautic Defense & Space Co (EADS) and based in France .

Most of the world's Internet users lost access to YouTube for several hours Sunday after an attempt by Pakistan's government to block domestic access affected other countries. The outage highlighted yet another of the Internet's vulnerabilities, coming less than a month after broken fiber-optic cables in the Mediterranean took Egypt off line and caused communications problems from the Middle East to India. An Internet expert likened the cause of the outage to identity theft by a Pakistani telecommunications company, which accidentally started advertising itself as the fastest route to YouTube. But instead of serving up videos of skateboarding dogs, it sent the Internet traffic into oblivion. Pakistan Telecommunication Authority ordered 70 Internet service providers to block access Friday to the YouTube video-sharing site because it contained material that was perceived as anti-Islamic movies. The authority did not specify what the offensive material was, but an official for the agency said the ban concerned a trailer for an upcoming film by Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders, who has said he plans to release a movie portraying Islam as fascist and prone to inciting violence against women and homosexuals. The censorship action was intended to cover only Pakistan, but extended to about two-thirds of the global Internet population, according to Renesys Corp. , a Manchester, N. H. , firm that keeps track of the pathways of the Internet for telecommunications companies and other clients.
