Ibrahim Zayat and Germany Security

The lack of understanding and the indifference of German policy-makers enabled the expansion of the Brotherhood presence all over Germany. As one German diplomat stated: “There was a prevalent view that conflicts between the Muslim Brotherhood and its governments were of no concern to Germany and that these were ‘domestic quarrels’.
