EU aims to organise imam training

Michel visited Austria to honour the victims of last week's jihadist attack in Vienna.

It's very important to be determined on this. I think, for example, that we should have a debate on the European level about the idea that was established some time ago to form a European institute to train imams”, he told the media.

“Internet messages that clone terrorism must be removed quickly. There should be no impunity for terrorists and those who value them online”, he said later in a post on social networks.

In the past period, European Union countries have faced perceived terrorist attacks.

On October 16, in France, a history teacher was brutally murdered after he had illustrated a law on free speech with the cartoon of the prophet Muhammad. An 18-year-old native of Chechnya, born in Moscow, is responsible for the murder. The attacker had the teacher's head cut off. After the attack, he was shot dead by police, writes the REL.

On October 29th, another man killed three people in a Nica church, in what French President Emmanuel Macro described as a “terrorist attack, Islamic”.

While on November 2nd in Vienna, Austria, an attacker killed four people and injured 22 others. Austrian police killed the alleged assailant, who identified him as Mejim Feyzullai, 20, with citizenship from Austria and North Macedonia. The militant group, the Islamic State, claimed responsibility for the attack without giving evidence. Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz called it a revulsive terrorist “fight”.

French President Emmanuel Macro on Tuesday will organise a summit through video connection to coordinate a European response to recent attacks in Europe.
