Zakia Khattabi’s Controversial Statement on Hamas: Political Figures React and Analyze Legal Implications

2023-11-06 09:22:00

But this release shocked some and several political figures reacted immediately on social networks.

Zakia Khattabi: “I don’t use the term ‘terrorist’ to describe Hamas because it has a legal meaning that I don’t know”

Denis Ducarme, MR federal deputy, thus spoke of a “serious error”. “The European Union, which has established a specific list, qualifies Hamas as a terrorist organization. Our federal minister is making a big, very big mistake by turning away from the EU on such serious issues,” he commented. .

For his part, the federal deputy of Engagés Georges Dallemagne also criticized the comments made by Zakia Khattabi. “From now on, each minister will do what he pleases with regard to the list of organizations officially recognized as terrorist by the EU? Where are we going…?”, he asks on X.

Theo Francken (N-VA) also commented on the outing on social networks, questioning the Prime Minister. “Kahttabi is a member of the Belgian government. Can your minister stay in office, Alexander De Croo?” he says.

Joël Rubinfeld, president of the Belgian League once morest Anti-Semitism, also reacted. “Thank you for this clarification Zakia Khattabi. So 2 things: firstly, you do not know much regarding the law, secondly the former anti-terrorism judge Marc Trévidic dismantled in the blink of an eye your fallacious argument on the alleged absence of ‘ legal meaning’ of the term ‘terrorist’. When I think that we were on the verge of having you in the Constitutional Court….”, he said.
