``India should have central role in fighting piracy''
India should have a ``central role'' in the fight to stop piracy in the strategic waters of the Gulf of Aden, one of the world's busiest waterways, said a top French diplomat.
``Piracy is a complex problem that must be taken seriously,'' Jack Lang, a former French culture minister, said on Mauritius state television after arriving on the Indian Ocean island for an October 7-8 regional conference on the issue.
