NEW DELHI — French President Emmanuel Macron said the country’s political extremes must “put their houses in order” after the killing of a far-right activist over the weekend.

“There is no space in France for movements that adopt or legitimize violence,” Macron told reporters during a trip to India.

The activist, 23-year-old Quentin Deranque, died after receiving blows to the head during a fight outside a conference featuring left-wing MEP Rima Hassan at a university in Lyon, France’s third-largest city.
