Pak Sahafat – The Secretary General of the United Nations, in response to the failed coup attempt by the extreme right-wing group known as Reich Citizens in Germany, stressed that such threats should be decisively fought.
According to the report of the Pak Sahafat news agency, quoted by the German newspaper “Tugschau”, Antonio Guterres, the Secretary General of the United Nations, also reacted to the recent coup d’etat plan of the group known as Reich Citizens in Germany, which was suppressed.
He emphasized: The biggest terrorist threat in western countries comes from the extreme right. This threat must be fought decisively.
In early December, German federal prosecutors arrested about 22 people who allegedly wanted to overthrow the political system in Germany. The investigators of this case accuse the suspects of this project from the so-called “Reichburger” scene of being members of a terrorist organization.
In a speech, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres used these coup plans as an opportunity to warn of right-wing terror around the world. Guterres said in New York: “It has been shown that the greatest terrorist threat in Western countries today comes from the extreme right, from neo-Nazis and those who believe in white supremacy.”
He added: Every form of neo-Nazism, anti-Semitism and anti-Muslim hatred must be confronted clearly and decisively. Guterres said: This is clearly a threat and we must fight this threat decisively. The events in Germany are just one example of the threat to democratic societies around the world.
“Citizens of the Reich” are people who do not recognize the Federal Republic and its democratic structures. According to reports, the arrested conspirators wanted to form 286 “internal security companies” to carry out arrests and executions after the coup.
