Urging the European Union to designate Hizballah in its entirety as a terrorist organization.
Summary
House Resolution 599 is a formal statement from the U.S. House of Representatives calling on the European Union to officially label the entirety of Hizballah as a terrorist organization. Currently, the EU distinguishes between the group’s political wing and its military wing, only applying the terrorist designation to the latter. By urging the EU to eliminate this distinction, the resolution seeks to increase international pressure on the group, disrupt its global financing networks, and strengthen security cooperation between the United States and European allies.
