The Institute of Political Studies (IEP) of Paris banned a conference by the MEP of La France insoumise Rima Hassan which was to be held this Friday, indicated Tuesday the elected official, who immediately announced that she would take legal action to contest this decision.
The management of Sciences Po has decided to ban a conference by the rebellious MP Rima Hassan, which the latter was to hold on Friday November 22 at the Institute of Political Studies (IEP).
“Luis Vassy did not authorize this conference due to the risk of breaching public order,” the school management told AFP.
In reaction, Rima Hassan denounced, on
A series of prohibitions
This is not Rima Hassan's first conference to be banned. Last April, the management of the University of Lille canceled a speech that the MEP was to hold with Jean-Luc Mélenchon.
The following month, it was Paris-Dauphine University which canceled a similar conference by Rima Hassan.
As a reminder, the latter is the target of an investigation for “apology of terrorism” after having estimated after October 7 in an interview that it was “true” that the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas was carrying out legitimate action.
