The State Department designated four European radical leftist groups as terrorist organizations as part of the Trump administration’s crackdown on Antifa.
The organizations designated included “anti-American” and “anti-Christian” entities located in Germany, Italy, and Greece, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Thursday. The designated groups have been accused of carrying out or threatening to carry out violent attacks, including bombings.
“Today, building on [President Donald Trump’s] historic commitment to uproot Antifa’s campaign of political violence, the Department of State is designating four Antifa groups as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and Specially Designated Global Terrorists,” Rubio said. “The United States will continue using all available tools to protect our nation from these anti-American, anti-capitalist, and anti-Christian terrorist groups.”

One group <a href="https://www.state.gov/releases/office-of-the-spokesperson/2025/11/designations-of-antifa-ost-and-three-other-violent-antifa-groups/">labeled</a> as a Foreign Terrorist Organization by the State Department included Antifa Ost (also known as Antifa East and Hammerbande), a “militant” group based in Germany. The group has been accused of attacking right-wing figures in Germany between 2018 and 2023, and in Budapest in February 2023. Hungary labeled the group a terrorist network in September 2025.
Another group receiving the designation was the Italy-based Informal Anarchist Federation/International Revolutionary Front (FAI/FRI). The State Department noted that the group has claimed responsibility for “threats of violence, bombs, and letter bombs against political and economic institutions, including a courthouse and other ‘capitalist institutions,’” since 2003.
Two Greek organizations, Armed Proletarian Justice and Revolutionary Class Self-Defense, were also designated as terrorist organizations. These groups were described as anti-capitalist and have been implicated in a number of bombings. The Revolutionary Class Self-Defense has taken responsibility for improvised explosive device attacks targeting the Greek Ministry of Labor (February 3, 2024) and the Hellenic Train offices (April 11, 2025), the State Department said.
Individuals belonging to organizations designated as terrorist organizations lose access to the American financial system and can’t access any property they have in the United States.
Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO), who has been outspoken about the threat of leftist violence, praised the move from the Trump administration.
“I’m grateful to Secretary Rubio and the Trump Administration for working with me on this critical issue – holding these radical groups who enable, fund, and support political violence in the United States and across the world accountable,” Schmitt said. “Each of these groups are violent cells in this transnational operation. Designating them as FTO’s is an important step to dismantling this subversive network of far-left extremism.”
Last month, Schmitt held a hearing on leftist violence, which featured the testimony of Daily Wire host Michael Knowles.
In September, Trump signed an executive order declaring Antifa a terrorist organization and directed his administration to take steps against any illegal activities being carried out in its name.
