Paris – Amid growing European scrutiny of the Muslim Brotherhood’s activities, the French Parliament is holding a pivotal session through its Foreign Affairs Committee to discuss a draft resolution aimed at placing the organization on the European list of terrorist groups.
This move follows earlier U.S. steps that designated certain branches of the Brotherhood as terrorist entities, and is based on a French Interior Ministry report highlighting the group’s financial and organizational structure as well as its networks of influence across Europe.
The debate unfolds against a backdrop of wide political and security discussions over the potential implications of such a decision at the European level, with France positioning itself at the forefront of this hardline approach.
