Australia have trust in France over Paris Games security

Australia’s Chef de Mission Anna Meares said on Wednesday that while security was the first subject athletes raised with her about the Olympics, she had full confidence that Paris would put on a safe Games in 100 day’s time.
France raised its security alert to its highest level last month and President Emmanuel Macron said on Monday that alternatives to holding the July 26 opening ceremony on the river Seine had been prepared in case they were needed.
Security is also at the forefront of Australians’ minds in the wake of two major stabbing attacks in Sydney in the space of three days, the first on Saturday at a shopping centre close to where Meares was speaking that resulted in six deaths and 12 injuries.
Meares told reporters at the launch of the team’s opening ceremony uniform at Clovelly beach, “Security is at the forefront of our planning, and it’s a major priority for us, we trusted the organising committee and the French government will do a good job in providing a safe and secure games.”
