Lobbyists Linked to Muslim Brotherhood Hosted at EU Parliament
27th March 2023
An NGO linked to the Muslim Brotherhood was given a platform at the European Parliament this week despite its established links with the hardline Islamist group. The European Network Against Racism (ENAR) is a pan-European, anti-racist umbrella group that hosted a series of panels and policy meetings with MEPs at the Parliament from March 20th to 22nd.
ENAR has been repeatedly linked to the Muslim Brotherhood by EU officials, with its recently retired director, Michaël Privot, admitting he was a former member of the extremist organisation. The Muslim Brotherhood is a global Islamist organisation banned in multiple countries, and noted for its entryism into civil society groups.
