France said Thursday it had banned four Muslim preachers from entering France to attend an Islamic conference, saying their "calls for hatred and violence seriously damage republican principles".
 
France also "regrets" that Swiss Muslim intellectual Tariq Ramadan has been invited to the meeting of the Union of Islamic Organisations in France (UOIF), a statement from Foreign Minister Alain Juppe and Interior Minister Claude Gueant said.
