Today, during his speech in the parliament of Canada where two weeks ago a young Islamist killed a soldier before dying himself, the French President Francois Hollande stressed that there will be no concessions against terrorism.

“There is no room for concessions and weakness” when a country faces terrorism, said the French president while speaking to Canadians MPs and senators who participated in the extraordinary meeting.

Further he added that “Terrorism threatens the values ​​on which our nations were built”. Which is why “France and Canada act together by assuming their responsibilities “said the French president referring to the participation of both countries in the international coalition against jihadists in Iraq and Syria.

On Sunday Canada held its first air strikes against Iraq, while France has already made a few since the 19th of September.
