Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Sunday that French President Emmanuel Macron has 'attacked Islam' by encouraging the display of cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad.

ISLAMABAD - Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Sunday that French President Emmanuel Macron has “attacked Islam” by encouraging the display of cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad.

“Sadly, President Macron has chosen to deliberately provoke Muslims, incl his own citizens, through encouraging the display of blasphemous cartoons targeting Islam & our Prophet PBUH,” Khan said on Twitter. France has in recent years witnessed a series of violent attacks by Islamist militants, including the 2015 Charlie Hebdo killings and bombings and shootings in November 2015 at the Bataclan theatre and sites around Paris that killed 130 people.

mujaddady01 Our prime Minister is our Hero🇵🇰✌️ Pakistan 🇵🇰✌️

I like cartoons. They're only 'blasphemous' to the uneducated

let the clown macron take his own mind first.

Why france is not talking about holocaust ?

ACCUSE

Fool is ruling France. He really needs mental treatment.

Blasphemous? To who? Religion. What a sad farce.

these fanatic muslims are the biggest problem. and there's too many of them, the religion tends towards extremism. you're not a 'good' muslim until you go more extreme. islam is not a fucking sacred cow, not in a free civilized society. ImranKhanPTI FRANCE24 roadtoserfdom3

Well said. True. Respect to all religions!!!!

ImranKhan’s house (Pakistan) is on fire & here he is calling the fire station to put out a spark in France. He is putting the lives of 100s of Pakistanis worldwide in danger.

Follow me

Macron n'a aucun sens de la morale. à 15 ans déjà il a réussi à détruire une famille en commettant l'adultère avec une femme qui a 25 ans de plus que lui en causant la déchirure et le divorce , sans scrupules , il n'est pas apte à connaître ce qui est bien et ce qui est mal

Whatever we say about macron, he really managed intelligently to get an overview of his Muslim colonies whether official or unofficial on the one hand and the rest of the Muslim world on the other hand !!! In any case, his foot is between the two pedals: brake and accelerator !!!

It's to late for Franc to be cracking down on terrorism.

Algerian Genocide is the evidence of their fake liberalism.

Macron accuses PakPMO of attacking Christians and other minorities in Pakistan by promoting blasphemous laws and encouraging citizens and authorities to use or abuse Pakistan Penal Code, the main criminal code of Pakistan to punish blasphemy against any recognized religion.

Les poires, they don't understand french culture. In France it's acceptable to make a pun/ caricature on anything & everything & they do it. It's their culture. It may be different from yours. Take it or leave it. It's their country. They decide what goes.

We can connect the dots who were behind of tge killing of the teacher in France,means all Muslim were behind the attacks,uf so shame to u Muslims all over the world

In France it is a crime to deny the Holocaust because it hurts the sentiments of people. France has already set precedent to banning hate speech.

say no room for racism or xenophobia especially by a french pm..macoroni

So what happened to his TV channel that he was planning to launch to change world opinion and all the so called phobias?

Can this “great” muslim PM let us know what is the punishment of preaching the gospel or any other religion in the most tolerant and democratic Pakistan 🇵🇰. You and your beliefs are shame to humanity.

What exactly is a freedom to france ? can i call macroni’s mummified old wife a B***h in his face and he will smile and say Asalamoalikum fellow human what a nice way to portray my beloved Wh**e. I think there are too many Free Dumb in france

This is just to further confirm, God is devine but religions are mundane, made up by men for the benefit of men.

Is that why they oppress hindus, Christians and Shia in Pakistan

It’s only blasphemous in backward countries the rest of the world allow free people to have free speech no matter what religion it is

Pakistan PM , another crazy religious leader.

The countries that violate ALL human rights are waving their fingers in Europe !!! Europe is waking up, you have tolerated Islamic extremism enough. You have taken care of and treated those who had a problem. But they did not respect it! enough!

Pakistan lecturing on human rights. What a joke.

Ok cause it’s not ok to have blasphemous cartoons but ok yo behead a French teacher in broad daylight in the middle of the street. GET F*CKIN REAL!

Macron gone crazy it must b his wife that drives him crazy 😜

So! A 'cartoon' has what it takes to attack 'Islam'. Listen to yourselves... You are not strengthening Islam by paranoid objections such as this, you are weakening it. You need to show self confidence, composure, class and tolerance by welcoming freedom of speech and expression.

PM who declared osama a martyr in his parliament and advocated to pick up guns and declare jihad on non muslims is talking shit... bloody puppet

Pakistan is a failed state on the verge of becoming a theocracy. Jinnah is turning over in his grave.

Blasphemous to a backward religion. No condemnation for the attacker who cut a teachers head off. Pakistan, the pinnacle of civilisation.

Pakistan is the epicenter of all Jihadis

ImranKhanPTI is the true representative of Islam. Macron is the true representative of sick minded society who use religion for their personal gains same as extremists use religion for their propagandas.

'blasphemy' lol. what is this the middle ages?

Where is Salman? Can't he dare to respond his boss?

Islamisadisease

This PM doesn't know any thing about freedom.

Xi Jinping's shoe shine boy.

The irony is too much

🇹🇷🇵🇰👊

Why did you have to put encouraging in quotation marks? Isn’t it what he’s doing?

It shocks me when people of dire need of enlightenment start lecturing the Europeans on human rights.

Europe had not been as discredited as it was recently,even when slaughtering each other in the two world wars or stealing each other's masks a few months ago. Polished adolescent 'leaders'like Macron,Kurz,or bigoted local politicians like Wilders drove the continent to the ground

nope

Many thanks to Pakistan , someone should say stopislamophobie to French leader.

Macron is a fool inciting hatred in his country.

What about corruption in Pakistan?

What is worse than this cartoon is killing, murdering, and raping in the name of the prophet

Separation of church and state ... This is France not some backward fifth world country.

Blasphemy is made up.

The Prime Minister of a country that condemns Christians to death by hanging for having «blasphemed» dares to give lessons of tolerance, peace and human rights to France?

Mmmm....Mr Khan, how exactly are you treating your minorities?

Idiot, I use to think this guy was kool...

Sure, consider yourself attacked.

He was a better man when he played cricket. All those years ago...

Full of shit

Macron hurt the sentiments of billions of human beings on the name of Freedom of Expression. Shame.
