Muslim Brotherhood urge incoming US administration to end support for dictatorships

The Muslim Brotherhood on Saturday embraced the result of the US elections. A declaration issued by the movement’s Deputy General Guide, Ibrahim Munir, told Biden’s victory demonstrates that the American people are still proficient of enforcing their will.

The statement read: “On this occasion, we call upon the incoming American administration to reconsider previous policies of support for dictatorships around the world. We implore the Biden administration to repudiate the crimes and violations committed by tyrannical regimes against the rights of peoples.”

It added, “We regard policies that ignore the free choices of people and which foster relations with authoritarian regimes as absolutely inappropriate. They represent a choice to stand on the wrong side of history.”

The Muslim Brotherhood stated it continued committed to preserving the free choices of people in the belief that they will lead to well-built and just systems in which people have dignified lives and in which the values of justice, democracy, equality, plurality and the protection of human rights are all upheld.
