Politics of France

The National Council of European Resistance (French: Conseil national de la résistance européenne, officially abbreviated as CNRE) is a France-based pan-European far-right political organization[a] co-founded by Renaud Camus and Karim Ouchikh on 9 November 2017 (9 November 2017) by analogy to the National Council of the Resistance.[4] It has links to the identitarian movement.[5][6]

The council is intended to bring together qualified French and European personalities who aspire to "work for the defence of European civilization"[7]—to oppose the Great Replacement, immigration to Europe, and, more generally, to defeat replacist totalitarianism,[7][8] a concept theorized by Renaud Camus.[9][10][11]

Membership in the council is strictly enlarged by co-option.[7] Several high-ranking European officials have taken part, such as former President of the Czech Republic Václav Klaus, former members of the European Parliament Jean-Yves Le Gallou and Paul-Marie Coûteaux, former member of the European Parliament Janice Atkinson, former representative to the National Assembly of France Christian Vanneste, Belgian member of parliament Filip Dewinter, or Africanist historian Bernard Lugan.[1]

Name

[edit]

The name Conseil national de la résistance européenne is a reference to the coordinating body of the French Resistance during the German occupation of France—the National Council of the Resistance.[4] When asked how the CNRE could be both national and European, Renaud Camus replied:

The Council is national in that each and every nation is responsible for defending its independence and protecting its culture. It is European because our civilisational struggle must be fought in concert with and by all Europeans.

— Renaud Camus

History

[edit]

Background

[edit]

Renaud Camus, a French writer and co-founder of the movement, coined in 2010–2011 the concept of "Great Replacement", a theory which supposes that "replacist elites"[b] are colluding against the White French and Europeans in order to replace them with non-European peoples—specifically Muslim populations from Africa and the Middle East—through mass migration, demographic growth and a drop in the European birth rate; a process he labeled "genocide by substitution."[12][13] Camus was a candidate in the 2012 French presidential election, but failed to gain enough elected representatives presentations to be able to run for president, and eventually decided to support Marine Le Pen.[14][15]

Creation

[edit]

On 9 November 2017, in a public address in Colombey-les-Deux-Églises—the village where Charles de Gaulle is buried—Renaud Camus announced the foundation of the National Council of European Resistance and asked for a collective European commitment.[5]

All the European nations are invited to lead by our side the fight for the salvation of our common civilization, Celtic, Slavic, Greco-Latin, Judeo-Christian, and free-thinking.

— Renaud Camus
