Serve humanity, regardless of religion. Show solidarity for those suffering and oppressed.

I think that political parties are fuelling this fear in order to create divisions. The more we bring up fear, the more we neglect real political issues. Political debate in France is crumbling since every single issue is brought to Islam now.

The Turkish road is not my model because I am critical of the way you are dealing with freedom of expression, of how you are dealing with the treatment of minorities, and your economic vision.

Political rhetoric leads only to confusion.

You're a man, but the day you raise your voice to your mother, you're not anymore.

When I am talking to people from Germany, we should know that there are certain things and certain histories that are very important for people. If you look at all the Muslims living in the West, they didn't react in a violent way. They don't like what they saw but they are citizens like you and me and they look at it and say: "This is a silly video but we are not going to react."

Violence against embassies and civilians must be categorically condemned. At the same time, we must attempt to understand why such events occur.
