“The reaction to this unprecedented attack has been exemplary and massive, with millions in France and elsewhere standing calm and determined that that we cannot touch democracy and the values of France. This is what is at stake in the fight against the barbarians.”<\/p>\n
And he told Iranian Resistance leader Maryam Rajavi: “You are fighting to establish democracy in your country and fighting for the same values being attacked here.<\/p>\n
“This is why I appreciate the presence of your movement today in the rallies that occurred. You were there with us as we are here with you.<\/p>\n
“We are all against fanaticism, are together to enforce the fundamental rights of human beings. Accepting our differences is what makes the wealth of nations. Long live democracy and peace.”<\/p>\n
