“Promote this type of Nazism; we do not need it in Australia,” said Interior Minister Tony Burke, on the ABC public channel.
Kanye West, who legally changed his name in Ye, launched Heil Hitler on May 8, on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the defeat of Nazi Germany during World War II.
The song, forbidden on large platforms such as YouTube, quickly obtained millions of listeners in the social network X.
The clip shows a set of African -American extras carrying beast skins and occupy the title of the song in the choir, which greets Adolf Hitler, in 1933 and 1945 for a regime responsible for the extermination of about six million Jews in Europe. The song ends with a speech pronounced by the Nazi dictator.
“Import idio”
The 48 -year -old rapper, whose wife Bianca Censori is Australian, has been arriving in Australia for some time to visit the family in the country, Burke added.
“He made many offensive comments. But my officials reexamined the situation when he launched the song Heil Hitler And that it no longer has a valid visa in Australia, “he added.
According to the minister, the level of cancellation of the visa, however, does not concern the organization of concerts.
When asked about the viability of a prohibition of a personality as popular as the American rapper, the minister replied that, according to him, “what is not viable is to import hate.”
However, he said that Australian immigration officials reevaluated each visa application. Australian citizens enjoy freedom of expression, they added Burke, “but we already have enough problems in this country so as not to deliberately import fanaticism.”
