“I recall our meeting at your office in Paris four days ago where we reaffirmed our commitment to working together in the fight against terrorism and violent extremism,” he said. “A terrorist attack in France within three days only justifies our joining hands together with greater strength to fight this absolutely violent insanity against human civilisation,” he added.
