DISINFO: The Pope might suggest a mosque to be built at the site of Notre Dame

SUMMARY

Many Europeans would like to hear a comment from the Pope, but the Vatican keeps quiet. Internet users are warning that he eventually will deliver a speech on how Europe needs to be open and let in even more migrants and that a mosque should be build at the site of Notre Dame de Paris.

RESPONSE

A collections of random tweets, collected to support unfounded claims on the fire at the Notre Dame de Paris as a result of migration. Recurrent Russian media narrative on LGBT dictatorship in Europe which violates the rights of Christian believers and an attempt to defamation of Pope Francis. The investigation into the causes of the fire at the Notre Dame cathedral of Paris is ongoing. The prosecutors do not consider arson a likely cause of the tragedy.
