US Hosts International Conference on Resurgence of Far-Left Political Terrorism
The United States is hosting an international ministerial conference chaired by Secretary of State Marco Rubio to address the resurgence of far-left political terrorism globally. The meeting aims to enhance cooperation to map violent activities, disrupt financing, and protect infrastructure. The US has designated four far-left groups as terrorist organizations since November 2025 and offered rewards for disrupting their networks. While the US emphasizes this threat's transnational nature, some civil liberties groups warn of potential impacts on lawful protests. India is unlikely to participate.
