(CNN) -- French authorities said Wednesday that they will not authorize weekend demonstrations in Paris as protests over an anti-Muslim video started to fade worldwide. Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault told radio station RTL that French police forces have been reinforced should protesters organize. "There is no reason to bring conflicts in our country that do not concern France," he said. Adding to the debate, the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo published cartoons featuring a figure resembling the Prophet Mohammed in an issue that hit newsstands Wednesday. Any depiction of Islam's prophet is considered blasphemy by many Muslims. Magazine director Stephane Charbonnier told CNN affiliate BFM-TV that his staff is trying "to comment (on) the news in a satirical way."
