President Ford privately told President Giscard d'Estaing:
"It wasn't satisfactory. We reached a first conclusion: it was not an isolated crime, it was something organized. We were sure that it was organized. But we could not find out by whom. So there was an organization, which has not really been exposed, that hated, that detested or that feared President Kennedy, and that decided to get rid of him."

Hi Jim, I hope you are well.
But anyway, I find this piece of hearsay to be quite odd.
Is there any American evidence to support this claim from anyone?
Did President Ford say this to anyone in America, anyone?
How good was President Giscard d'Estaing's understanding of English or was there an interpreter?
Under what circumstances was this even bought up?
Was President Giscard d'Estaing a JFKA devotee?
President Ford says "We were sure..." which doesn't sound particularly convincing.
President Ford also says that they couldn't find who the exact organization was, that was behind the assassination, again not very convincing.
In 1999 Ex-President Ford made the following declaration that Ford believes that Oswald was the assassin and that the WC couldn't find any evidence of a conspiracy, which doesn't specifically refute his alleged interaction with Giscard but at the end of the day a gut instinct hunch goes nowhere and let's face it, the JFKA has since been investigated by hundreds or even thousands of keen researchers for perhaps millions of hours and still to this day not one investigator has found even a single shred of evidence of any conspiracy.
