Paris: France intends to disband a far-right and a far-left group, government spokesperson Maud Bregeon said Wednesday. They include the far-right Identitarian group Patria Albiges and the far-left group Front de Rue, Bregeon told reporters following the weekly Cabinet meeting. She stated that Interior Minister Laurent Nunez proposed the dissolution of the two groups to President Emmanuel Macron during the meeting. According to Anadolu Agency, Patria Albiges claims to focus on raising awareness about issues including immigration, insecurity, and "Islamism." Eleven far-right activists linked to the group have reportedly been sentenced to prison terms ranging from four to eight months, as reported by broadcaster Franceinfo. Meanwhile, Front de Rue is identified as an anti-fascist group based in northern France, particularly in Lille. The announcement of the proposed disbandment follows Macron's February meeting with government officials to examine measures against extremist violent groups. This initiative was in response to the death of a French nationalist activist during clashes between far-left and far-right groups in Lyon.
