The President of the Republic Emmanuel Macron reacted on Twitter: “The Nation is in shock. Our thoughts are with them as well as their families and the mobilized relief workers, ”he said. This tragedy caused great emotion in the National Assembly where a minute of silence was observed at the request of President Yaël Braun-Pivet after this “serious attack”.

“The investigation will determine the conditions, but it seems that the author has the same profile that is often found in these attacks”, launched Éric Ciotti (LR). “We will have to draw all the consequences without naivety, with strength and lucidity”. ” How is it possible ? Attacking little ones! Hit them with a knife! Our heart is in pieces having to live it, ”commented Jean-Luc Mélenchon for his part.

“Dread and horror”, also commented the leader of the deputies of the National Rally, Marine Le Pen. Antoine Armand, Renaissance deputy for Haute-Savoie, the department where the tragedy took place, denounced “an attack on our soul quite simply, where young children who were playing outside of school time were attacked by an individual”.
