France has called on Arab countries to stop boycotting products. Recently, the country’s president, Emanuel Macho, has taken a firm position to ensure the protection of secular values and the fight against Islamist separatism. Following his position, several Arab countries have called for a boycott of French products.
The French Foreign Ministry said in a statement Sunday that it had recently called for a boycott of French products, especially food, in several Middle Eastern countries following the publication of satirical cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). In addition, several Muslim countries have called for protests against France.
The French Foreign Ministry says the boycott is unfounded and must be stopped immediately. At the same time, it is necessary to stop all kinds of aggressive attitudes that are provoking an extremist minority community. “We will never bow down to Islamic fundamentalists,” Makhon said in a tweet. Furthermore, we do not resist taking hostile statements and rational opinions.
A teenager of Chechen descent was recently killed by a French teacher after a cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was shown to students at a school in France. The incident has caused a lot of tension in the country.
The teacher was attacked on the road in front of his workplace high school last Friday. After the incident, President Makho promised to continue the fight against Islamic separatism. He says that this separatism seeks to establish control over Muslim communities in France. He also mentioned that the display of images mocking the Prophet (PBUH) in government buildings in France will not stop.
From then on, the countries of the Arab world began calling for a boycott of French products. Kuwait’s non-governmental consumer cooperatives have already boycotted several French products. It has been seen that the products of the French company are being withdrawn from some stores in the country.
