After the coup attempt, FETÖ was declared a terror organization by various countries and international organizations. In October 2016, at its 43rd Council of Foreign Ministers' session, the Organization of Islamic Conference declared it a terror organization. Additionally, the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus also declared FETÖ a terror organization, as did the Supreme Court of Pakistan in a December 2018 ruling.
