For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video The beheading of teacher Samuel Paty by a teenage Islamist radical in retaliation for showing pupils controversial cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed has once again raised tensions not only in #France, but across Europe and the #Muslim world. The murder reignites the debate about the freedom of speech, religion vs. secularism, legal rights vs. moral rights, and Western social norms vs. Islamic norms. France has vowed to defend its secular values, while some Muslim countries, including Turkey, have criticized French attitudes towards Muslims. Why does France react so differently to the Muslim world? Will this latest murder fuel tensions between them? And in a time of multi-sectarian societies, should there be a boundary between secularism and religion? #Turkey
