French President Francois Hollande attended the 70th anniversary commemoration of the liberation of Auschwitz, the largest Nazi death camp, where 75,000 French Jews were sent. The anniversary comes as France is re-examining how it addresses radicalisation, racism and anti-Semitism in the wake of the terrorist attacks in Paris in January. RFI reports from a ceremony at the Camps des Milles, a deportation camp near Aix-en-Provence in the south of France.
