France has stepped up security at its embassies in countries where there could be a hostile reaction to a French magazine's publication of cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed, Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said Wednesday.
"I have obviously issued instructions so that special security measures are taken in all the countries where this could pose a problem," Fabius said, admitting that he was "concerned" by the potential for a backlash to satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo's printing of the cartoons.
