French FM warns Middle East minorities could 'disappear entirely'
Christians, Yazidis and other religious minorities under attack in the Middle East could "disappear entirely" unless the world takes action to protect them, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said Friday.
Fabius told a UN Security Council debate that an "action charter" was needed to address the violence that saw 20 Coptic Christians beheaded in Libya last month.
"The danger is that minorities will disappear entirely," Fabius said. "The international community must not let that happen."
