On the same subject
Twelve people were killed on Wednesday morning. The Charb cartoonists, Cabu, Tignous, Wolinski, economist Bernard Maris … “They had influenced generations and generations of French”, said Francois Hollande. “This message of freedom will continue to defend it on their behalf.” The two policemen “died for their idea of France, that is to say freedom”, welcomed the President of the Republic.
A national day of mourning
“These are our heroes today,” he began solemnly, then that at the same time tens of thousands of people massed in the four corners of France to honor the victims. François Hollande declared Thursday “national day of mourning.” “The flags will be at half-mast three days,” added the president, to meet the future leaders of the parliamentary groups, and the presidents of the National Assembly and the Senate, Claude Bartolone (PS) and Gérard Larcher (UMP ).
Since the Elysee Palace, the Head of State reiterated his call to rally. “Our best weapon is our unity. Nothing can divide us, nothing should oppose, nothing should separate us, “he began. Shortly before this solemn appeal for national unity, we learned that Manuel Valls had invited Nicolas Sarkozy and the UMP to the “republican march” organized on Saturday by the left parties (PS, PCF, EELV, MRC, PRG).
“France, she has always defeated his enemies when she was able to rally around its values,” insisted Francois Hollande. “France, it is great when it is capable, in a test, to get to his best,” he insisted, assuring that “everything will be done to understand” the authors “of this infamy.” Because “freedom will always be stronger than barbarism,” promises the head of state.
Besides the Elysée announced that François Hollande will travel Thursday at 11 am at the Prefecture of Police Paris, saddened by the death of two policemen in the attack. He will meet with department heads before “a moment of meditation with the police at noon”
