FRANCE BANS TURKISH “GRAY WOLVES” ON ITS TERRITORY. The neighbor

The French government announced on Monday the ban on staying on French territory for the Turkish ultra-nationalist group of the "Gray Wolves", the latest phase of the ongoing feud between Paris and Ankara, unleashed after the two terrorist attacks last month which involved gruesome beheadings and knife attacks. on French citizens.

French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin issued the official statement banning the ultra-nationalist group, according to the AFP. Darmanin called the group "particularly aggressive" and said the law banning it would be presented in the French cabinet on Wednesday.

It is believed that days ago the Gray Wolves were the organizers of marches in two French cities where crowds largely Turkish claimed they were "looking for Armenians". Some media headlines pointed out that Turkish nationalists were "hunting down" the Armenians in connection with the tensions related to the ongoing war in Nagorno-Karabakh.

The Gray Wolves are a Turkish nationalist organization, which is committed to supporting Erdogan's pan-Ottoman policies. They are considered to be at the limit of the law even in Germany, where it was thought to ban them, but their political weight in the Turkish community is considerable, so Merkel eventually gave up on them. Now the French ban is putting Merkel in difficulty as she is managing a very large Turkish community, with a strong risk to public order in a very delicate moment. the choices made in the past begin to have consequences, and they may not be positive.
