French ambassador shocked by violence Regarding the attack on three French football fans in Belgrade, he said that he hopes that all who were responsible for the attack will be arrested and get the punishment they deserve – “a very strict punishment”. Terral added that he is shocked by the “unprovoked violence” against French football fans and that the "worst part is that the attack was planned out in advance". He said that similar violence and the state’s inability to secure safety for participators of the Pride Parade is damaging the image of Serbia abroad. “Such events, especially the lynching of Brice Taton, cast a shadow on Serbia’s image in the world,” Terral said, adding that it is "a shame", because Serbia "deserves better”.
