US top diplomat John Kerry said Friday his country shared France's pain over last week's Islamist attacks, after a warm embrace with President Francois Hollande who said their countries needed to work together against extremism.
"I know you know that we share the pain and the horror of everything that you went through," said Kerry as he met with the French leader who, referring to the September 11 attacks on New York said: "We must work together to find the necessary response."
