France will see evacuation operation in Kabul "through to the end," president says

“The president of the republic condemns in the strongest terms the terrorist attacks that took place near Kabul airport today. The president expresses his condolences to the families of the American and Afghan victims, expresses his support for the wounded, and salutes the heroism of those who are on the ground to carry out the evacuation operations,” the statement read. “France will see them through to the end and will maintain its humanitarian and protection efforts for Afghans under threat." 

The statement comes after French President Emmanuel Macron's news conference during which he told reporters that he could not guarantee the success of France’s evacuation mission due to the security situation in Afghanistan.
