  1. Criticism over political neutrality and representation

    Critics questioned whether the state-backed creation of the CFCM was compatible with French laïcité, whether it encouraged communautarisme, and whether the council represented Muslims who were not affiliated with its constituent religious organizations. Commentary also alleged that Sarkozy appeared to favor the Union of Islamic Organisations of France.
