4 French citizens were onboard. Also Réunion Island were the debris were found is fully part of France as a French "département".
French are working closely with the Aussie and Malaysian authorities they are not taking the lead !
Therefore a French prosecutor is in charge of investigating the debris.
Would you find normal that an French "procureur" be in charge of an investigation for debris in Sydney harbour ?
Or else an Aussie having authority on the French Riviera ?
