“What does the CEO of #Aéroports de #Paris do when his airport turns into a #mosque? Is the change of assignment official???? » Former Minister of European Affairs Noëlle Lenoir witnessed an unusual scene at Roissy-Charles de Gaulle airport on Sunday November 5. In the photo that the lawyer broadcast on Xpeople can be seen performing a prayer on their knees.
They were Muslim travelers leaving for Jordan and the prayer lasted ten minutes at Terminal 2B, an airport source told AFP. “This is a regrettable first,” commented on the CEO of Aéroports de Paris, Augustin de Romanet. “Dedicated places of worship exist” and “the border police have been instructed to prohibit this and will increase their vigilance,” he added.
“A firmness and a reminder of the necessary rules, the teams at our airports are fully committed to it”, reacted the Minister of Transport Clément Beaune on X. Augustin de Romanet also judged that it was “not necessary to highlight this episode, unpublished, at this time” in an allusion to the war between Hamas and Israel.
