The town hall of Béziers
(Hérault) has banned the opening of a booth held by veiled women during the
"salon of women and well-being" organized from 8 to 10 March at the
Palais des Congrès in the city.
"The municipality discovered that a booth would be held by women wearing
the Islamic veil. Which have also planned a parade of veiled women during the
show, "announces a statement from the town hall, which judges"
unacceptable, at a fair dedicated to women, which also coincides with the
International Day of Women's Rights, to tolerate such a manifestation contrary
to the French values of liberty and emancipation "."The wearing of the Islamic veil is incompatible with the theme of the show and bordering on provocation when we think of all these women who, all over the world, fight, sometimes at the risk of their lives, not to wear it (...) defense of the values of French civilization can not suffer from any accommodation with this kind of practices that relegate the woman to a state of submission contrary to the values of the Republic "says the mayor.
