European country bans niqab
The President of Portugal, José Seguro, issued a law banning face coverings in public places, targeting niqab wearers. This was based on the belief that the face is a fundamental element of human identity and communication. The law prohibits wearing clothing that covers or obscures the face, and also includes any coercion that forces someone to cover their face for reasons related to religion, gender, age, or origins. The legislation was passed in Parliament with the majority support of the ruling right-wing coalition and far-right parties, while it was opposed by leftist parties.
