Federal Minister of Climate, Zakia Khattabi , as well as her entire Ecolo party, are wrongly included among the 160 Belgians considered "Muslim Brotherhood" by a Swiss intelligence company that would have provided this erroneous information to the secret services of the United Arab Emirates.
Zakia Khattabi , Belgian Minister of Climate, is facing criticism from her fellow citizens who do not approve of the fact that she takes the plane to go to Morocco or Lebanon, the country of origin of her husband. They believe that the use of the car and the plane is incompatible with her function and call on her to set an example.
The former co-president of Ecolo has carved out a path to the government led by Alexandre De Croo, now occupying the position of Minister of Environment and Climate. Of Moroccan origin, Zakia Khattabi is one of those many people who have managed to fight to forge a personality and a reputation.
The smear campaign organized by the New Flemish Alliance (N-VA) against the candidacy of the ecologist deputy Zakia Khattabi to the Constitutional Court annoys the Ecolo party. Its co-president, Rajae Maouane, has asked the N-VA party to withdraw this campaign.
