The UN special adviser on the prevention of genocide, Adama Dieng, said on Wednesday that the new class of nationalist, far-right leaders in Europe was redolent of the 1930s when the Nazis rose to power.
"We cannot allow human beings to be treated the way they are being treated. The signs of the '30s are resurfacing. Unless we are blind or of bad faith, we should admit that it’s time to stand up, it is time to speak out," said Dieng.
