President Sarkozy was kept informed, and urged France to remain alert to the ever-present threat of terrorism. “We must continue to to be vigilant, it is the only way,” he said. “Because, sadly, anything can happen. But we will never negotiate with terrorists.” Printemps, like other stores at this time of year, was packed with Christmas shoppers. Everyone was evacuated, and no-one was hurt.
