The government will dissolve the Gray Wolves, a Turkish ultra-nationalist movement

A new dissolution decided by the government. After BarakaCity and the CCIF, the Ministry of the Interior is now targeting the ultra-nationalist Turkish movement Les Loups Gris.

This small group has multiplied in recent weeks violent actions in the Lyon region. On October 28, a raid left four wounded, linked to a fight on the A7 motorway during a demonstration by Armenians in defense of Nagorno Karabakh. The genocide memorial and the Armenian national center of memory, near Lyon, were then vandalized, covered with pro-Turkey inscriptions and insults, on the night of Saturday to Sunday.

“It is time to dissolve #Loupsgris and all the associations that advocate hatred and violence in France,” responded on Twitter Francis Kalifat, president of the Representative Council of Jewish Institutions in France (Crif).

“Where are the Armenians”: Turks on a punitive expedition to Décines

This ultranationalist group, whose rallying sign is a thumb attached to the middle and ring fingers, is known to be close to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who recently questioned the “mental health” of Emmanuel Macron.

Note, however, that the Gray Wolves do not have an official legal existence. Which raises the question of the efficiency of this dissolution. “Gérald Darmanin is making a new coup (the movement is not structured in France), but does not tackle the real problem: the pro-caliphate association # MillîGörüş, which manages 71 mosques and 10″ Turkish schools ” », Launched the patron of the National Rally on Twitter.

During his hearing in the Assembly, Mr. Darmanin also indicated that the dissolution of the Collective against Islamophobia in France (CCIF), announced in the wake of the assassination of Samuel Paty on October 16, would be examined “in 15 days “.
