Thousands Rally In Bangladesh To Protest Emmanuel Macron's Comments In Cartoon Row

News 18  

Thousands of Muslims took to the streets of the Bangladesh capital on Tuesday to protest against remarks by French President Emmanuel Macron in a row about cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad. Macron paid tribute to Paty, describing him as a “quiet hero” dedicated to instilling the democratic values of the French Republic in his pupils. Many carried placards bearing messages such as “Stop Islamophobia”, “Boycott France” and “Lay siege to the French Embassy in Dhaka” as they marched towards the French embassy before police stopped them. Pakistan’s parliament on Monday passed a resolution urging the government to recall its envoy from Paris, hours after its Prime Minister Imran Khan it out at Macron for “attacking Islam”.
