Burqa has no place in France: Sarkozy



French President Nicolas Sarkozy says there is no place for full face and body veils such as the burqa, or for the debasement of women, in France. 
Sarkozy says all beliefs will be respected in France but says "becoming French means adhering to a form of civilization, to values, to morals." Sarkozy said during a speech on national identity that "France is a country where there is no place for the burqa." Earlier, French President criticized burqa in June and formed a 32-member panel to do legislation to ban burqa.
