Nicolas Sarkozy wants to ban burqa in France
Nicolas Sarkozy wants to ban burqa in France.
"France is a country where there is no place for the burqa, where there is no place for the subservience of women," Sarkozy said in a speech on French national identity.http://lafrance.com/files/u1/Burqa_Afghanistan_01.jpg
France, home to Europe's biggest Muslim minority, has set up a special panel of 32 lawmakers to consider whether a law should be enacted to bar Muslim women from wearing the full veil. The country has had a long-running debate on how far it is willing to go to accommodate Islam without undermining the tradition of separating church and state, enshrined in a flagship. Sarkozy says all beliefs will be respected in France but says "becoming French means adhering to a form of civilization, to values, to morals." He also said that "France is a country where there is no place for the burqa."
