At the 93rd General Assembly of INTERPOL in Marrakech, French police official Lucas Philippe was elected as the organisation’s new President, beginning a four-year term.
The vote took place on 27 November 2025, with the Assembly gathering 886 delegates from 179 member countries and 34 international organisations.
Philippe replaces Ahmed Naser Al-Raisi, who had been serving since 2021. In addition to Philippe’s election, the Assembly chose new members to INTERPOL’s Executive Committee — including a Vice-President for Asia and several regional delegates — emphasising the organisation’s intent to strengthen its global governance and response to threats like cybercrime, organised crime and data protection issues.
