“#Sarajevo has proclaimed itself a ‘city of openness and tolerance’ for anyone but #Jews,” commented #Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt, president of the Conference of #European #Rabbis. “Chief rabbis from all over #Europe were due to convene to discuss the most pressing issues facing European #Jewish life today and matters of freedom of religion or belief. Shockingly, we have been made unwelcome.”
The European Commission hosted in April the Civil Society Forum in #Brussels on combating #antisemitism and fostering Jewish life amid a surge in antisemitism following 7 October 2023 where Jews in the #EU are linked to #Israel and blamed for the far-right #Israeli government’s violation of international law in the #war."
