France and the UK have lashed out against remarks made by US President Donald Trump concerning gun laws in the two European nations.
"Nobody has guns in Paris and we all remember more than 130 people, plus tremendous numbers of people that were horribly, horribly wounded. You notice nobody ever talks about them," said Trump on Friday while addressing gun owners in Texas.
"They were brutally killed by a small group of terrorists that had guns. They took their time and gunned them down one by one," he said.
He then went on to mimic the assailants firing their weapons, saying: "Boom. Come over here. Boom, come over here. Boom."
Following the speech, Paris called on Trump to respect for the victims for the Bataclan terrorists attacks in the country.
"France expresses its firm disapproval of the comments by President Trump about the attacks of November 13 2015 in Paris and asks for respect of the memory of the victims," said a statement by French foreign ministry spokeswoman Agnes von der Muhll.
Former French president Francois Hollande and ex-prime minister Manuel Valls, who were in office at the time of the 2015 attacks, voiced their outrage over Trump's remarks in separate statements.
Hollande referred to the US president's remarks as "shameful" adding that they "said a lot about what he (Trump) thinks of France and its values."
Valls also wrote "indecent and incompetent. What more can I say?" on his Twitter account.
In his Friday speech, Trump also said that a "once very prestigious" London hospital had become weighed down with knife attack victims.
"They don't have guns. They have knives and instead there's blood all over the floors of this hospital," he said.
"They say it's as bad as a military war zone hospital. Knives, knives, knives, knives," he added, while mimicking stabbing gestures.
British Trauma surgeon Karim Brohi reacted to Trump's remarks by stressing that they were ridiculous.
"There is more we can all do to combat this violence, but to suggest guns are part of the solution is ridiculous. Gunshot wounds are at least twice as lethal as knife injuries and more difficult to repair," said Brohi.
Knife crime had reached the highest point in England and Wales since 2011, figures showed last year. About 60 suspected murders, including assaults and stabbings, have been reported in London this year, according to London's Metropolitan Police.
The British capital, however has never recorded more murders in a year than America’s most populous city — New York City — which recorded 290 murders last year, the lowest number in decades, compared to London’s 130.
