At least 120 people were killed and over 200 wounded in Paris area on Friday night in apparently coordinated attacks carried out outside the countrys main sports stadium and four other popular locations in the city.

French President François Hollande called an unprecedented terrorist attack on France. His government announced sharply increased border controls and heightened police powers as it mobilized the military in a national emergency.

Romanian President Klaus Iohannis has expressed grief and consternation with the terrorist attacks in Paris and has expressed solidarity with the French people. These barbaric attacks, which have taken the lives of innocent people, must be a signal for the entire international community: to show even more determination in combating terrorism and in defending human values, the President said in a message.

Romania’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has also firmly condemned
the attacks in Paris. Romania stands together with France and will continue to
support the fight against international terrorism, said the Minister of Foreign
Affairs, Bogdan Aurescu. The Romanian Foreign Ministry has also issued a travel
warning for France, given the state of emergency declared throughout the
country by the French President.
