PARIS: A deadly shooting in Munich was a "disgusting terrorist attack" aimed at stirring up fear in Germany after France was targeted last week, French President Francois Hollande said on Saturday.
An 18-year-old German-Iranian gunman shot dead at least nine people on Friday by opening fire in a busy Munich shopping mall, but the city´s police have said it was too early to say whether
it was a terrorist attack.
"The terrorist attack that struck Munich killing many people is a disgusting act that aims to foment fear in Germany after other European countries," Hollande said in a statement.
"Germany will resist, it can count on France´s friendship and cooperation," he said, adding that he would speak with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Saturday morning.
