US President Donald Trump defined an executive decree that characterizes Antifa movement ‘Terrorist organization’The White House announced on Monday as part of the government’s actions aimed at left -wing teams and organizations after the assassination of Charlie Kerk.

Kerk, a prominent conservative activist with close ties with Trump, was murdered on September 10 while talking to a campus in Utah. Authorities are still looking for an incentive, and so far have not linked the 22 -year -old student who is accused of killing him. However, the Trump government uses the murder as a pretext to revive years of plans and target left -wing groups that considers hostile to conservative views, comments on Reuters.

Last week, the White House had announced its intention to tackle the one that described the “internal terrorism” of the left in the aftermath of the Kerk murder, which shocked the US.

“The problem of violence comes from the left. That is why Donald Trump has just described Antifa, a network of terrorists of the Radical Left aimed at overthrowing the government by force (…) as a domestic terrorist organization. “ The White House said in a statement. In the executive decree released, Antifa is also described as ‘Anarchist’ organization.

Antifa, abbreviation of Anti-Fascist, is a ‘Decentralized, headless movement consisting of groups, networks and individuals’according to the Anti-Defamation League, which is watching extremists.

“While some who claim to be associated with antifa actually engage in violence or vandalism at concentrations and events, this is not the rule.”she says on her website.

An official at the Ministry of Justice with knowledge of discussions on the matter said that the designation of Antifa as a “terrorist group” would “Unlock extensive research and surveillance”.

‘In general, the characterization ‘Terrorist group’will allow the US government to closely monitor the economics and movements of American citizens, groups and non -profit organizations that it considers anti -fascist, “ Complete.

Government critics accuse her of seeking to violate the fundamental right to freedom of speech. “FBI’s anti -terrorism and spy departments will be used to monitor economic – both domestic and foreign funding sources – and to try to identify the central leadership of Antifa”said the official.

“The designation as a ‘terrorist group’ gives us the power to summon banks, to consider bank remittances, foreign and domestic sources of funding, such things.”stated a White House source at Reuters.

Legal experts have stated that such steps can be legal and constitutionally doubtful, and difficult to apply, while raising concerns about freedom of speech, as dedication to an ideology is not generally a criminal offense under US law.

During the first Trump government, there were at least two failed attempts to describe Antifa as a “terrorist organization”, according to internal internal security communications, according to the Reuters.
