German Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservative government is planning to ask that the face veil be banned in schools, universities, and while driving a motor vehicle, the Euro News website reports today (August 19, 2016).
The ban involves all types of head coverings obstructing a clear view of the face.
Muslim women wearing the burqa and niqab will be particularly affected.
The government's call for a partial ban on the burqa and niqab suggests they represent a lack of integration, an inferior social categorization of women, and could pose security risks.
