On October 3, 2025, a vote in the Dutch Parliament to ban the Muslim Brotherhood fell short by two votes. The motion, put forward by Geert Wilders, did not pass due to the unexpected decision of the Pro-Russia party, Forum for Democracy (FvD), not to support it.

This vote reflects ongoing discussions in the Netherlands regarding the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood and related organizations. The failure of the motion highlights divisions within the Dutch political landscape, particularly concerning foreign policy and domestic security issues.
