BRUSSELS (AP) — Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo said on Friday that he will seek the help of government experts on extremism in the wake of a series of school arsons.
De Croo spoke just hours after a sixth school in the French-speaking Wallonia region was torched this week.
The program is a required four hours of training for students aged 11 to 12 and 15 to 16, intended to help them develop their relational and sexual lives.
De Croo said that sexual education has been provided in Belgium for half a century and warned that the country will not take steps backwards.
“I would like to call on everyone to calm down and try once again to cut through the lies circulating about the Evras system,” the education minister in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation, Caroline Desir, said Friday.
Local media quoting the prosecutor’s office in the city of Charleroi said the investigation has not established a link between the six arsons so far.
