Abstract

The 2024 Paris Olympics pose a significant security challenge for France, with measures being taken to prevent potential disasters. Around 30,000 police officers, 45,000 guards, and 18,000 soldiers will be deployed daily to ensure safety. The French Interior Ministry has implemented a vetting program and plans to expand surveillance powers, including the use of AI-powered facial recognition CCTV. The threat of terrorism, both Islamist and from other extremist groups, as well as potential state-sponsored attacks, is a concern. Additionally, domestic unrest and protests are expected. Despite the risks, the French authorities are confident in their preparations. [Extracted from the article]
