PSG said in the statement: "All of us are stunned and devastated by the sudden death of a much-liked colleague, universally recognised for his professional expertise. "His passionate, dynamic and extremely professional approach placed Nick on the cutting edge of European football coaching, and he was a key member of Carlo Ancelotti's staff." PSG cancelled their press conferences on Friday and Saturday, and French media reported that the French league had turned down a request to postpone their Ligue 1 game at Girondins Bordeaux on Sunday. — Reuters |
| Hollande says Mali action will last as long as necessary Posted: 19 Jan 2013 07:54 AM PST  Reuters file picture of French president Francoise Hollande. "People often ask how long this will last. I reply, the time it takes. The time it takes to vanquish terrorism in this area," he said. Hollande, who ordered French fighter jets into action in Mali a week ago to halt an Islamist advance, also said a hostage crisis at a desert gas plant in Algeria offered further evidence that France's action in the region was justified. He said attempts by the Algerian authorities to root out the hostage-takers were under way but that reports were now coming in that the operation had come to an end. "Hostages have been killed, assassinated in cowardly fashion," Hollande said. — Reuters |
