Paris: The capital of anti-terrorism

Security authorities are monitoring reports that Ireland is being used as a training ground for jihadists, Taoiseach Enda Kenny said, as he was among 50 world leaders and senior figures leading a demonstration in Paris following the killing of 17 people last week.

The leaders linked arms with journalists and families of the victims at the head of one of the biggest demonstrations ever seen in Paris.

President François Hollande declared that Paris was the “capital of the anti-terrorist world”, while Mr Kenny said “we are all French today”.
