Paris: French President Francois Hollande fired back at Donald Trump on Saturday after the US president told a conservative conference that a friend thought "Paris is no longer Paris" after attacks by Islamist militants.

Mr Hollande said Mr Trump should have more respect and support for US allies.

"There is terrorism and we must fight it together," he said.

"I think that it is never good to show the smallest defiance toward an allied country. I wouldn't do it with the United States and I'm urging the US president not to do it with France.
