The French president Emmanuel Macron announced her development by the Ministry of Interior “additional media” after three nights of riots that the country is experiencing on the occasion of the death of a teenager in a suburb of Paris by a policeman’s bullet, with him complaining “tooling” of this tragic incident.

During an interministerial crisis management committee that met at the Ministry of the Interior, Macron expressed his satisfaction with the “fast and proportionate” police response.

“There is an unacceptable instrumentalization of the death of a teenagerwhich we all mourn at a time that should be a time of reflection and respect,” he said, condemning the perpetrators of such instrumentalization as well as the “brutal and gratuitous violence that has no legitimacy.”

“The decision has been made to cancel several festive events and several gatherings in apartments which are the most sensitive”he said.

“It is clear that the environment we live in, we see, is the result of organized, violent and sometimes armed groups, which we condemn, which we arrest and will bring to justice, but also many young people. A third of those arrested last night are young, sometimes at a very young age,” Macron remarked.

He addressed appeal to “all parents to take their responsibilities”.

“It is the parents’ responsibility to keep them home. (…) The state has no intention of replacing them”, he continued.

At the same time he emphasized that major social media platformssuch as TikTok and Snapchat, they should cooperate with the French authorities to defuse the violent incidents.

He said he expects “a sense of responsibility” from the major social media platforms, citing Snapchat and TikTok in particular, through which they organize “violent gatherings” and which “also cause a form of imitation of violence, which leads younger people to lose touch with reality”.

“We sometimes have the feeling that some of them they are reviving the video games that have poisoned them in the street”he emphasized.

“Requests will be made where useful and whenever useful, to identify those who use these social media to call for riots or intensify violence,” he reported.

The government will work with social media to delete “of the most sensitive types of content’.
