The French parliament approved adding Wagner to the list of terrorist groups.
The European Union is being urged by a law passed by the French parliament to list Wagner's mercenary outfit as a terrorist organization.
The French Parliament has been meeting in extraordinary sessions since yesterday to discuss the bill, which was approved by every member present. France is now getting ready to send the bill to the European Parliament.
The ruling party's parliamentarian Benjamin Haddad expressed their expectation that the other EU 27 members would join France in designating Wagner's mercenary company as terrorists.
He claims that the Wagners kill, torture, and steal property in addition to causing security issues and acts of violence everywhere they appear.
In his address to the French Parliament, Benjamin Haddad claimed that Wagner is utilizing the commands of President Vladimir Putin to undermine democracy and track what they are doing in nations like Mali and Ukraine.
Volodymyr Zelensky, president of Ukraine, has already hailed France for its decision and asked other European nations to do the same.
This decision demonstrates that it will expressly forbid nations from doing business with the Wagner corporation, which is now providing security in many African nations, including Mali.
Given that the EU already sanctioned Wagner in February for breaching human rights in Africa and assisting Russia in invading Ukraine, this bus represents the first instance in which the firm has been subject to European sanctions.
