Paris shooting: Will this change the election?

The first round of the French presidential election will take place on Sunday

A 39-year-old gunman has killed a policeman on the Champs-Elysees in Paris, wounding two other officers before being killed by security forces.

With the first round of voting for the French presidency set for Sunday, we discuss what implications the attack may have for the outcome.

In an extended podcast, we hear from Anne Giudicelli, a security advisor; Christine Ockrent, a French journalist; Nathalie Goulet, president of an inquiry into the fight against jihadist networks in France and Europe and James Naughtie, the 91热爆's special correspondent.
