The Belgian authorities are concerned about vakhabism propaganda in about ten Belgian schools that teach Arabic and the basics of Islam.
The local media quote Minister of Justice Annemie Turtelboom who says that several schools are financed by Saudi Arabia.
The Derniere Heure newspaper refers to Annemie Turtelboom’s words that thus Saudi Arabia hopes to recruit students for its universities where they could continue religious education and disseminate vakhabism.
The Belgian security services believe that these schools are a problem in the context of the struggle against radical Islam.
