France is willing to strengthen security cooperation with Tunisia, especially after Friday's terrorist attack which claimed the lives of 38 people, French Prime Minister Manuel Vallas said on Sunday.

Terrorism sought to hit Tunisia as it is a country which adopts principles of democracy and secularism, he said.

Vallas revealed a security agreement to dispatch military helicopters to Tunisia.

He further urged the European countries to follow suit of his country and support the Tunisian economy.
