Though "watching with attention and concern", the French government has no plans to intervene in the fate of French publisher Ubisoft according to a Reuters story. This in response to the recent acquisition of 20% of Ubisoft shares by Electronic Arts, with a full takeover expected at some point. It's also been said that French media group Vivendi Universal was looking to help out Ubisoft somehow, but the company has denied it's been talking with Ubisoft.
