Default Bon Jovi unlikely to tour Australia or France

Got this from melodicrock.com. Not sure if this is 100% true but... Read it yourself.

Fans in both Australia and France have started petitions to get Bon Jovi to include them in their upcoming tour. I ran this past my Jovi source, who sent back this detailed reply:
"The band is not coming to Australia for a proper tour at all. In all reality, it boils down to that it is not financially beneficial to play shows down under for American acts. By the time [artists] play and come back [to the USA], they truly do not have much money to show for a few weeks of very hard work. The Australian money does not translate well to America. Australian promoters were desperate to bring Springsteen in '03 and they did and lost loads of money.
In regards to France...they won't play because it's the only European locale the band does not fill stadiums in, so don't expect them to play a smaller sized arena there."
