The Netherlands has taken a step to follow President Trump’s example and declare Antifa a terrorist organization. According to NL Times, a majority in the lower house of the Dutch Parliament voted in favor of the motion. “A motion to that effect by Lidewij de Vos (FvD), Caroline van der Plas (BBB), and Geert Wilders (PVV) was passed with the support of the VVD, SGP, and JA21,” the outlet wrote. The Dutch Parliament just voted and adopted a motion that designates Antifa as a terror organization. This follows yesterday’s post from President Trump where he declared Antifa a domestic terror organization.

Trump announced on Truth Social he was designating Antifa a “terrorist organization.” “I am pleased to inform our many U.S.A. Patriots that I am designating ANTIFA, A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER, AS A MAJOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. I will also be strongly recommending that those funding ANTIFA be thoroughly investigated in accordance with the highest legal standards and practices,” he said. "I am pleased to inform our many U.S.A. Patriots that I am designating ANTIFA, A SICK, DANGEROUS, RADICAL LEFT DISASTER, AS A MAJOR TERRORIST ORGANIZATION…" – President Donald J.

Hungary will replicate a policy announced by US President Trump, and designate Antifa a terrorist organisation, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said on Friday. Antifa, short for "anti-fascist,” is an umbrella term for far-left-leaning militant groups and is not a singular entity. pic.twitter.com/OgveqkYu6I — euronews (@euronews) September 19, 2025 The Associated Press explained: Orbán, a right-wing populist and strong Trump ally, said in comments to state radio on Friday that he was “pleased” by Trump’s announcement that he plans to designate antifa as a “major terrorist organization” in the United States. “Antifa is indeed a terrorist organization,” Orbán said. “In Hungary, too, the time has come for us to classify organizations such as antifa as terrorist organizations, following the American model.” It was unclear what prompted Orbán’s decision to make the move. Antifascist groups rarely engage in political actions in Hungary, where Orbán and his party have held near-total power for more than 15 years. Yet in his statements Friday, Orbán referenced a 2023 incident in which antifascist activists engaged in assaults against several suspected participants in an annual far-right event in Budapest. One of the alleged assailants, Italian antifascist activist Ilaria Salis, was jailed in Hungary for over a year following the assaults, resulting in a diplomatic dispute between Rome and Budapest over her treatment in detention.
