Watched A candidate for the presidency of France: Yes to white Christians, no to Arabs and Muslims

Right-wing French presidential candidate Eric Zemmour pointed out that Ukrainian immigrants are closer to the French people because they are Christian Europeans, unlike Arab and Muslim immigrants.

The French presidential candidate, the far-right Eric Zemmour, said that he "welcomes the white Christian immigrants from Ukraine, unlike the Arab and Muslim immigrants who are far from us," as he put it.

In a television interview with the French channel BFMTV, Zammour was asked: "Do you say yes to the white Christian immigrants, and no to the Arab-Muslim immigrants?", to answer: "Of course yes, and clearly."

When the announcer confronted him, saying that "the suffering is one," he replied, "Yes, humanity is one and everything is one, we are all human beings, but what I say is that people are close to us and others are far from us."

He continued, "What we are witnessing today, and everyone is starting to understand, is that Arab and Muslim immigrants are far from us, which leads to the difficulty of their integration and education in our societies, meaning that we are closer to Christian Europeans."

Far-right candidate Eric Zemmour is known for his hostility to Islam and immigrants in France, despite the fact that he is a Jew of Algerian origin, and last January, he used anti-immigrant expressions, to be subjected to a fine of 10,000 euros.

France is preparing to hold the first round of the presidential elections on April 10, and if the candidates fail to achieve the majority needed to win the post, a second round will be held on April 24 to choose one of the two candidates who won the first and second places.
