Secretary of State John Kerry received the Legion of Honor in
Paris on Saturday, where he warned in his acceptance speech of
"dangerous currents of authoritarian populism."
"No part of the world remembers better what happens when difficult economies mix with sectarian exploitation with nationalism and fear," Kerry said. "We really need to be careful going forward and think hard about the choices that we face."
Kerry said the award, as "everybody in America is rekindling this personal sense of the relationship between us," underscores the special relationship between the United States and France.
