 [GatestoneInstitute] French President Emmanuel Macron has announced new measures aimed at countering political Islam in La Belle France. The changes would limit the role that foreign governments have in La Belle France in training imams, financing mosques and educating children.
Macron also vowed to fight what he called "Islamist separatism" and to lead what he described as a "Republican reconquest"

aimed at reasserting state control over Moslem ghettoes ‐ so-called no-go zones (zones urbaines sensibles, sensitive urban zones) ‐ in La Belle France.

In a much-anticipated policy speech, Macron, during a visit to the eastern French city of Mulhouse on February 18, said that his government would seek to combat "foreign interference" in how Islam is practiced, and the way that Moslem religious institutions are organized in La Belle France. "The problem is when, in the name of a religion, some people want to separate themselves from the Republic and therefore not respect its laws," he said. "Here in La Belle France, there is no place for political Islam."
Macron outlined a four-pronged strategy to combat Islamism in the country: 1) fight against foreign influences in schools and places of worship; 2) reorganize Moslem worship in La Belle France in accordance with the principles of secularism and French law; 3) fight against all manifestations of Islamist separatism and communitarianism; and 4) reassert state control over all parts of La Belle France.
Macron said that, among other measures, he plans to terminate a decades-old teacher exchange program called Teaching Language and Culture of Origin (L'Enseignement Langue et Culture d'origine, ELCO), which allows nine countries ‐ Algeria, Croatia, Italia, Morocco, Portugal, Serbia, Spain, Tunisia and The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
 ...Qatar's satrapy in Asia Minor...
‐ to send teachers to La Belle France to provide foreign language and culture courses without oversight by French authorities.
| On reflection, some of those countries are not like the others. |
Four majority-Moslem countries ‐ Algeria, Morocco Tunisia and Turkey ‐ are involved in ELCO, which serves approximately 80,000 students each year. These countries also send several hundred imams to La Belle France every year. Foreign imams, Macron said, were often linked to Salafism or the Moslem Brothers and "preach against the Republic." He stressed: "This end to the consular Islam system is extremely important to curb foreign influence and make sure everybody respects the laws of the Republic."
Macron said that ELCO will be replaced with bilateral agreements to ensure that the French state has control over the courses and their content, as of September 2020. Macron added that Turkey was the only country that had refused to sign a new bilateral agreement.

In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms.
