In an interview with two reporters from France’s top newspaper, French President François Hollande revealed a view of Muslims that surprised many as staunchly xenophobic and more likely to align with the nation’s far-right Front National than the incumbent’s center-left French Socialist Party.
France has “a problem with Islam,” he told Le Monde investigative journalists G é rard Davet and Fabrice Lhomme for a book of interviews with Hollande titled, some might say rather appropriately, "Un pr é sident ne devrait pas dire ç a…", or "A President Should Not Say That…" “I think there are too many migrants, too much immigration that shouldn’t be there.”
The president, who has been in office since May 2015, then backtracked somewhat, adding, “It’s not Islam that poses a problem, in that sense that it would be a religion that would be dangerous in itself, but because it wants to affirm itself as a religion in the [French] republic. Then, what poses a problem is if the Muslims don’t denounce acts of radicalization, if the imams behave in a way that is against the republic.”
While the source of the comments shocked some, France has made headlines in the past few years for controversial policies targeting Muslim culture. Last summer, police in towns along France’s southern coast fined women for wearing the so-called “burkini,” a swimsuit that offers full body coverage. And two years ago, a European court upheld a countrywide ban on wearing the niqab, or full-face veil, in public spaces.
The country has also suffered several major attacks by the Islamic State terrorist group in the past year, most notably the Nov. 13, 2015, Paris shootings and suicide bombings that killed 130 people, and the attack by a truck driver in Nice, who killed dozens when he drove straight into a large crowd at a Bastille Day celebration.
