Reactions of opposition in France and around the world intensified following the National Rally party, led by Marine Le Pen, announcement of intentions to impose fines and ban veiling in public places if elected president in 2027. Activists launched a digital campaign under the hashtag #FoulardPourTous in solidarity with Muslim women, posting photos and videos of themselves wearing the hijab, emphasizing that solidarity is a means to combat racism. This came in response to statements made in an interview by Deputy Jean-Philippe Tangi, in which he said that the party views the hijab as a symbol of an ideology incompatible with republican values, and that they would work to oppose it. The remarks sparked widespread protests and calls for civil disobedience to obstruct the implementation of such policies should the far-right come to power.
