Emmanuel Macron published on Friday evening a text in tribute to the victims of the attacks of November 13, which ends with a call to "not give up".
The head of state posted it on social networks, five years after the tragedy.
"Let us never forget those who left us this evening of November 2015": Emmanuel Macron published on Friday evening a text of tribute to the victims of the attacks of November 13, which ends with a call to "not give up anything ".
“It was 5 years ago. At the Stade de France, at our terraces, at the Bataclan. France was struck to the heart. Horror, in the middle of Paris. But the French remained standing. Standing against terror. Stand up to defend our freedoms and our values, "writes the Head of State on social networks.
"That was 5 years ago and I'm thinking of you. We won't give in. We will hold on, together."
Echo to "they will not pass"
In the morning, its Prime Minister Jean Castex, accompanied in particular by the mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo, went to the Bataclan, in front of the Stade de France and on cafe terraces, where commandos remotely controlled by the Islamic State group killed 130 people, sowing fear in the country.
Emmanuel Macron's message echoes his "they will not pass", a sentence he hammered on October 16, the evening of Samuel Paty's assassination.
A new wave of terrorism has hit France and Europe in recent weeks, from the assassination of Samuel Paty after a course on freedom of expression where he showed caricatures of Muhammad, to the attack on the basilica in Nice two weeks later, followed by another in downtown Vienna, Austria.
