Foreign Minister Yair Lapid in response to the publication of the European Union’s new strategy against antisemitism:
I congratulate the European Union for presenting a comprehensive strategy for combatting antisemitism and strengthening Jewish life in Europe.
This step reflects a commitment not only to the fight against the ugly phenomenon of antisemitism, but also to the security of the Jewish community.
This strategy is an important pillar in the fight against antisemitism, the promotion of education amongst the young generation, and Holocaust remembrance.
I look forward to strengthening cooperation between Israel and the European Union on this topic.
