The United States has officially designated the Muslim Brotherhood branches in Egypt, Lebanon, and Jordan as terrorist organizations. On Tuesday, the U.S. Treasury Department identified the Jordanian and Egyptian branches as 'Specially Designated Global Terrorists,' while the State Department blacklisted the Lebanese branch as a 'Foreign Terrorist Organization' (FTO). The move follows an executive order issued by President Donald Trump in November to blacklist these groups.
According to the Trump administration, the decision was taken due to the Brotherhood’s alleged support for the Palestinian group Hamas and involvement in activities opposing Israeli interests in the Middle East. The Treasury Department stated that although the Brotherhood presents itself as a legitimate social organization, it directly assists terrorist groups like Hamas. The State Department added that the designation would cut off the Brotherhood’s financial sources and bar its members from entering the United States.
Senator Marco Rubio described the action as the first step in a long-term effort to counter the Brotherhood’s violent and destabilizing activities worldwide. The decision effectively freezes the organizations’ financial transactions and imposes a permanent entry ban on their members.
