The Economist: Ten years after the Charlie Hebdo massacre, satire is under siege
Ten years after the Charlie Hebdo massacre, satire is under siege
The Charlie Hebdo massacre in 2015 marked a significant moment for free speech in France, as two gunmen killed 12 people at the satirical newspaper, which had long criticized religion, particularly Islam. A decade later, public support for the right to offend is declining amid rising concerns over safety and political correctness.

The incident catalyzed a series of Islamist terrorist attacks in Paris, prompting a national debate on the limits of satire and freedom of expression. As the anniversary approaches, the tension between protecting free speech and addressing societal sensitivities remains a critical issue in France.

Sharaa, who took power recently, is seeking to present a moderate image and has engaged with Western officials to discuss lifting sanctions. During a meeting with German and French foreign ministers, concerns were raised about potential Islamist influences in Syria's education system and the need for inclusive governance.
