France Cracks Down on Extremist-Tied Immigrants Following Teacher's Murder
French President Emmanuel Macron has ordered a review of all foreign immigrants with ties to radical extremists for possible deportation following the murder of a French teacher by an Islamic terrorist. The country has raised its anti-terrorism alert to the highest levels, and local authorities have been given 48 hours to examine the files of "radicalized people" to ensure no oversight in the expulsion procedure. Macron wants the state to be "implacable against all those who support hatred and terrorist ideologies." The government has said it is not trying to stigmatize any community, but attention will be paid to young people from the Caucasus region. French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin has indicated that talks with Russia will be resumed to organize these expulsions.
