Macron party supports banning hijab in public spaces for minors
The Freeman
|May 22, 2025
French President Emmanuel Macron’s political party wants to ban minors under 15 from wearing the Muslim headscarf in public, with the government set to review a report Wednesday on the spread of “political Islamism” in France.
-
Macron will meet with senior officials today to discuss a report that describes the Muslim Brotherhood as a “threat to national cohesion” in France, warning it risks undermining “the fabric of society and republican institutions.”
The ban proposed by the Renaissance party would forbid “minors under 15 from wearing the veil in public spaces,” phrasing that in France generally means places outside the home like the street, cafes, parks and stores.
It added the hijab “seriously undermines gender equality and the protection of children”.
