The Comité du 9-Mai (C9M) is a French far-right informal group created in 1994 following the death of Sébastien Deyzieu, a 22-year-old nationalist activist who fell from a building on May 7, 1994 while trying to escape from police during a banned demonstration in Paris. Initially founded by the Groupe Union Défense (GUD), the Front National de la Jeunesse (FNJ) and the Jeunesse Nationaliste Ré volutionnaire (JNR), the C9M has organized an annual commemoration in Paris ever since.

One of the Committee's mottos is: "Our flag is greater than death," as can be seen on some of the T-shirts worn by its members.
