Former French Foreign Minister: 'This is a long fight'

Available for over a year

French President Francois Hollande has warned that the terrorist threat to France isn't over - and says people should stay vigilant. He's been speaking after police ended two armed sieges. Three gunmen were killed along with four hostages. Francois Hollande has described the events as "a tragedy for the nation", and has praised security forces. But the country's Prime Minister has admitted there were "failings" in intelligence. Bernard Kouchner was France's foreign minister from 2007 - 2010 and told Clare McDonnell on BBC Radio 5live that he thinks "there will be other attacks". He said now was the time for countries in Europe to stand together: "This is a long fight." This was originally on BBC 5 Live with Clare McDonnell on Friday 9 January 2015.
