Amid all these riots and clashes around France, tourists are still pouring to the country. Some of the ones in Paris, where the protests started on Tuesday after Nahel was killed by police in a Parisian suburb, say that they still feel safe. Derol, an American tourist from Florida, says that it is unfortunate that it's happening when he is on holiday in the city, but his partner Miriam "has confidence in Macron to take care of the situation". Pascual Gonzalez from Spain says that "he feels very safe" since he stays in an area where no violence is happening. Another tourist from the US city of Chicago, Jacqueline Baughmend, says: "We also had that in the United States back in 2021 with George Floyd. Now, watching France go through their own version of it is interesting." A young tourist from England, Claire, says that she checked the news and decided that it was absolutely fine to go to Paris. "There's so many things going on in the world - if you listened to everything, you'd never travel." Duncan, also from England, says: "You can see that it's still a lovely city, and we haven't come across any problems."
