State of emergency should continue

France would like to be a good, comfortable and safe host for this summer for EURO 2016 games. That is why the Government is proposing to extend the security measure for another two months which has to be first approved by the constitutional court and then the parliament. Over the last weeks the French authorities have simulated exercises of chemical weapons attack. Prime Minister Manuel Valls said that the extension until the end of July will 'allow a better response against a terrorist threat' for the continental championship. Tournament organizers have increased the security budget by 15 percent for the games.
The state of emergency, which was extended twice, was scheduled to end 26 May.
