A report on the movement of the Muslim Brotherhood and its “entry” will be in the heart of a defense council chaired by Emmanuel Macron on May 21, Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau, on Sunday, May 11, said.
Invited during the RTL/m6/le Figaro/Senate public jury to confirm the date of this meeting to discuss this report held by the moment, the minister replied that “there will be this defense council that will be chaired by the head of state.”
“It will be good on May 21 and for me it is fundamental because it means that this question will be placed in the heart of the State and the interminiisterial,” he added evoking “a threat to the Republic.”
A “Confidential Defense” report
This report is not published “because it is confidential for classified defense” and contains information “that, if they were known, including those of this report, they could inform them”, but a “light version” must be transmitted on a date to be solved, according to him.
Could this report propose the prohibition of Muslim Brotherhood? “No, because the problem of the Muslim Brotherhood is that there is little in the secret brotherhood,” but “it is enthrome,” replied to the minister.
“The Muslim Brotherhood invented the political matrix of Islam, but they have a very soft speech. And, today, we could not constitute evidence of a solution,” he developed.
“On the other hand, where we can hit and this is what we do (…), it is in the agency in sports clubs, in the schools of Al Kindi, for example, is the question of Averroès, the question of its own training institute in Château-Chinon, in the Nièvre, which has just been looking for,” Bruno Retailleauau continued.
An “overwhelming” report, according to Retailleau
The minister had announced two weeks ago his intention to make public “in a few days” an “overwhelming” report, “composed of information on the most qualified services of the State”, in “” ” Intelism ‘, the Muslim Brotherhood and its participation”.
The Government had trusted in May 2024 a mission to two senior officials about “political Islamism and the movement of the Muslim Brotherhood”, responsible for making a report in the autumn of 2024.
These works are presented as in line with the speech of Mureaux (Yvelines) about the separatism pronounced by Emmanuel Macron in 2020 and that led to the Law on the Principles and Values of the Republic of 2021.
