France says it has asked 46 countries if they would be willing to supply more than 2,000 police officers to help secure the Paris Olympics this summer, as organizers finalize security planning for the French capital's first Games in a century while on heightened alert against potential attacks.
Separately, the French Defense Ministry has asked foreign nations for"small numbers" of military personnel who could help with"very specific" tasks at the Games, including sniffer dog teams, said Col. Pierre Gaudillière, spokesman for the army general staff. Poland's defense minister said his country will be sending soldiers to the Paris Games. The Polish armed forces delegation will include dog handlers, and"its main goal will be to undertake activities related to the detection of explosives and counteracting terrorist phenomena," the minister, Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, posted on X.
