French President Macron has claimed that he has not made any offensive statements against Islam. “I have not spoken out against Islam, I have spoken out against Islamic terrorism,” he said. ‘
The French president claimed that his statement distorted the Muslim Brotherhood and spread it around the world.
The statement was made by AFP on Friday, citing an interview with a Paris-based weekly magazine.
According to AFP, the interview commented on Friday was published by the French magazine Jean-Africa.
“When I decided to attack Islamic fundamentalism, my statement was distorted,” Macron said. It spread to Turkey widely through the Muslim Brotherhood. So it has a great impact on public opinion. Naturally, it has had an impact in Africa, including the Sahara.
In that interview, French President Emmanuel Macron spoke directly against Russia with Turkey. He alleges that Russia, along with Turkey, is funding anti-France sentiment in Africa.
The French president has claimed that Russia, together with Turkey, has formed public opinion in Africa against French values.
“I am not talking about anything new,” Macron said. Many say, who gives the voice, who makes the video, who presents it in French to the media? – These are financed by Russia or Turkey. ‘
In an interview, Macron said that Turkey was a major contributor to misunderstandings last month when a teacher at a school in Paris (the French capital) legally showed a cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad in his class.
In recent months, France has been in a tense situation with Turkey on various issues, including Syria, Libya and the Mediterranean. Turkey is the first to express itself in several steps from Turkey. Emanuel Macron even played a leading role in pushing for the European Union to impose an economic embargo on Turkey. But in the end, the European Union did not agree to take any action against Turkey now, considering various aspects.
The French president softened the tone of the cannon
French President Emmanuel Macron softened the tone in the face of strong reactions of support for the publication of Islamophobic cartoons and comments mocking the Prophet (peace be upon him).
Qatar-based media outlet Al Jazeera said in an exclusive interview that it understands how Muslims feel about the publication of cartoons insulting the Prophet (PBUH).
Al Jazeera published the interview last month.
In an interview, Emanuel Macron said: “There was no government project or initiative in France to show cartoons. This is the work of an independent and autonomous private newspaper. Newspapers are not loyal to the government. I can understand how Muslims feel when they draw cartoons and insult the Prophet (pbuh).
Macroe said he did not support the cartoon of the Prophet, adding that his government had insisted that it would not support the cartoon. But because the words are distorted, people think they support the cartoons.
The French president also said that Muslims are the most affected by the behavior of those who distort Islam.
Attending a ceremony to pay tribute to French teacher Samuel Patti, who was assassinated a few days ago, Macron said it was clear to him that the cartoons of Islam and the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) will not stop.
Since then, Muslims in France have accused Macron of trying to suppress their religion and legitimize Islamophobia.
Several Arab countries, including Turkey and Pakistan, condemned Macro’s controversial comments. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan responded by saying, “The French President needs mental health treatment.” He called for a boycott of French products.
The boycott of French products fell on the entire Muslim world. Many companies, including many well-known chain stores, are removing French products from stores.
France has called on Arab countries to end the boycott, citing the far-reaching effects of the Corona epidemic.
