UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon paid homage to the victims of the Paris attacks on Sunday with a visit to the concert hall and one of the bars targeted by the jihadists.

"I'm a Parisian and sitting on the cafe terrace," said Ban in French, evoking the "Je Suis En Terrasse" slogan of defiance used after the November 13 attacks.
