Anas al-Tikriti, a leader of UK-based Muslim Brotherhood lobby groups, said he “welcomed reports from Western media which exposed the refusal of British Prime Minister David Cameroon’s government to ban Muslim Brotherhood activities and labeling it a terrorist organization.” Al-Tikriti further posted on his Facebook page, according to Arabic media, that “this represents a new defeat to [Sisi’s] Egyptian regime.”
For context, another report says that “A British government report into the Muslim Brotherhood has been delayed for several weeks as ministers clash over its findings and stall its release, the Financial Times has reported.
“UK investigators reportedly reached the conclusion that the Brotherhood should not be labeled as a terrorist organisation and had found “little evidence” that Brotherhood members have been involved in terrorist activities, Whitehall sources told the Financial Times….
“Ministers are reportedly concerned that the results will upset the UK’s allies in the Middle East and have stalled its publication, the FT reported.”
