US President Donald Trump has initiated steps to potentially label certain chapters of the Muslim Brotherhood as foreign terrorist organizations. An executive order signed by Trump directs the Secretary of State and Treasury Secretary to evaluate and report on whether chapters in countries such as Lebanon, Egypt, and Jordan should receive this designation. The administration alleges that these factions have supported or encouraged violence against Israel and US allies, as well as provided support to groups like Hamas. The move could result in sanctions against the Muslim Brotherhood, a group with deep historical roots and influence across the Arab world.
