In French, it would be /RitER'vik/, with stress on the last syllable (always the stressed syllable in French). Personnally, in a French sentence, I would pronounce it more like /,RitER'vik/, with a secondary stress on the first syllable, because of a (probably wrong) guess of the actual stress of this word.
