summary
A report on 'the Muslim Brotherhood and political Islamism' commissioned by President Emmanuel Macron and presented to the Defence Council at the end of May 2025 labelled several Muslim CSOs — including CCIE, FEMYSO and Étudiants musulmans de France, members of the European Network Against Racism — as part of a so-called 'Muslim Brotherhood structure'. Macron announced measures based on it; minority rights groups warned of further dissolutions, funding cuts and restrictions on association and expression.
