Thank you, Mr. President, for your warm statement of support for our French friends (w/video)

"France is our oldest ally."

"The French people have stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the United States time and again."

"Paris itself represents the timeless values of human progress. Those who think they can terrorize the people of France or the values that they stand for are wrong."

"The American people draw strength from France's commitment to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. We are reminded in this time of tragedy that the bonds of liberté, egalité and fraternité are not only values that the French people care about, they are values we share."
