Qatar Charity working to spread Muslim Brotherhood ideology in Italy

The Qatari regime uses all state institutions in Qatar to spread the thinking of the Muslim Brotherhood in Europe. Qatar Charity played a basic role in this regard.

This Qatari organization offered financing for political Islamist movements in Europe under the cloak of charity.

Italy was not immune from this policy. Qatar Charity founded a large number of Islamic centers in this European state, all with the aim of spreading the thinking of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The charity offered backing to some Islamic institutions and federations in Milano to serve this goal.

The French journalists Christian Chesnot and Georges Malbrunot threw light on the role the charity is playing in Italy in their book, "Qatar Papers", which was came out in April 2019.

The two journalists revealed that the charity had financed 113 projects for the construction of mosques and Islamic centers in France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Britain, Kosovo, and Belgium in 2014.

The charity, they said, specified 71 million Euros to this objective.

On April 3, 2019, the Union of Islamic Communities in Italy unveiled a new financing package by Qatar Charity.

Union President, Yassine Lafram, compared the financing Qatar Charity offers his union with the volume of trade between Qatar and Italy.

This financing, he said, is like a drop in the sea of trade between the two countries.

A documentary by the French and German language channel, RT, showed in November 2019 that Qatar Charity funds a number of organizations whose ideologies move hand in hand with this of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The documentary showed that Italy is the European country targeted the most by the Muslim Brotherhood.

The Brotherhood, the documentary said, implements 47 projects in Italy, with funding as much as 25 million Euros.

It said all this funding comes from Qatar Charity.
