In 2008 , Pierre Péan wrote '' The World According to K '' , another controversial book , on the supposed ties between Bernard Kouchner - French foreign minister - and African dictators . Péan claimed two consultancies run by associates of Kouchner were paid nearly $ 6m ( £ 4.1 m ; € 4.7 m ) by the governments of Gabon and Congo for reports that were written by him . According to Péan , some of this money was paid by the two African governments after Kouchner became foreign minister in May 2007 . Kouchner denied the accusations of conflict of interest , blaming the allegations on " circles " who hated him and pointing to differences with Péan over who should be blamed for the Rwandan genocide . Bernard Kouchner countered by accusing Pierre Péan of antisemitism , provoking a scandal in French press . This book is not only about Africa , but also about Kosovo , and how Kouchner used to behave there when he was United Nations delegate . Kouchner never answered about the facts Péan revealed in his book , and preferred to keep silent
