Euro 2016 security chief 'cool and confident' despite militant threat (Reuters)

By John Irish PARIS (Reuters) - The job of keeping millions of soccer fans safe at one of the world's biggest sporting events would be enough to keep most people awake at night. Throw in a French state of emergency due to the threat of a militant attack, as well as growing demonstrations against the government, and you would forgive the head of security for Euro 2016 for showing a few nerves just weeks before the tournament kicks off in Paris. The objective is to organize things well," Ziad Khoury told Reuters in an interview.
