America intends to remove 5 terrorist groups from the blacklist
The US administration declared its intention to remove 5 terrorist groups from the blacklist, which includes a large number of extremist groups, which have been classified as terrorist.
Fox News reported that a document was published indicating that US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken informed Congress of this anticipated move, last Friday.
The list of the five groups that America intends to remove from the terrorist list includes the armed Basque Land and Freedom (ETA) movement, Japan’s Aum Shinrikyo; Kahane Kach, an ultra-Orthodox Jewish group, as well as two other groups such as the Mujahideen Shura Council in the vicinity of Jerusalem, and the terrorist group.
The list of the five groups did not include, the Iranian Revolutionary Guards are still, according to the administration of Joe Biden, at the top of the list of terrorist groups. Opinions of 46 retired US generals publicly urged the Biden administration to keep him on the list.
The move comes as the Biden administration faces criticism for discussing removing the Iranian Revolutionary Guard from the blacklist as part of the nuclear deal negotiations.
Returning to Barack Obama’s nuclear deal was a top foreign policy priority of the Biden administration, though, and there has been little progress on that step as reports indicate that the administration may be considering removing Iran’s Revolutionary Guard from the list.
