| France denies its intention to track down Muslim children |
The French government has taken official measures to deny the spread of fake news. France is considering giving Muslim children ID cards to track them.
Late last week, politicians and social commentators accused President Emmanuel Macron of Islamophobia.
After a series of terrorist attacks, they reinforced the lie that France wanted to see Muslim children.
After Macron clarified the details of a new law to eradicate Islamist separatism, the backlash began.
According to the law, all children are assigned an identification number to ensure they can go to school.
However, several rounds of tweets and reports claimed that the target included only Muslim children.
The European Union and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs wrote in a tweet: Any purported intention to register children in France who were educated on the basis of their religion, belief or ancestors is completely wrong.
The person who spread the false news is Pakistan's Human Rights Minister Shireen Mazari, who tweeted that Macron did to Muslims the same way the Nazis did to the Jews in World War II. .
"Muslim children are given ID numbers while other children are not given ID numbers, just as the Nazis forced the Jews to wear yellow stars on their clothes to identify them," Mazari said.
Then Mazari deleted the tweet, explaining that the information was incorrect.
France fears that children who drop out of school or study at home are at risk of extremism.
French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin defended this plan in an interview with "Le Figaro" earlier this week: We must save our children from the Islamists.
The Ministry for Europe and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs tweeted: All children must go to school and family studies are limited to special circumstances.
Every child in France who is registered in a public school has a number known as a "national student card". However, the new law aims to limit children who are home-schooled and children who study in private schools.
This new response is the latest in the five-year-old conflict between France and the Islamic world, and a call for a boycott of French products distributed in the Islamic world after Macron pledged to fight Islamic separatism. a call.
