00:00Yesterday Thomas Joly was here and he had the opportunity to answer this question and clearly
00:07there was never an intention to show disrespect to any religious group. On the contrary, I think
00:16that Thomas Joly really tried to really intend to celebrate community tolerance. That was his word
00:23yesterday and looking at the result of the polls that we shared, we believe that this ambition was
00:30achieved. If people have taken any offense, we are of course really, really sorry.
