(Jerusalem Post) The central European country Switzerland may follow the decision made by its neighbor Germany and ban all Hezbollah activities within its territory.
The Swiss federal council agreed on Wednesday to examine an application titled “Report on the activities of the Shi’ite Islamist Hezbollah in Switzerland.” The Jerusalem Post reviewed the application that could lead to a full ban of the global terrorist movement Hezbollah in Switzerland.
The initiative was launched by the Christian Democratic People’s Party of Switzerland, when party politician Marianne Binder submitted the initiative in June.
The language of the anti-Hezbollah legislative initiative reads that “On April 30, 2020, Germany banned all activities of the Shi’ite Islamist Hezbollah. Germany justified the decision with the fact that Hezbollah is calling for armed struggle and rejecting Israel’s right to exist.”
