Thanks to Aurore Bergé for her clear words. Fruitful discussion with Israeli and EU-based experts about the effect of 7/10 on #Jewish communities, #democracy and #security in Europe, effective education tools and addressing #radicalisation and dangerous content online.

Today with ישראל כ”ץ Israel Katz I opened the 15th EU-Israel seminar against racism, xenophobia and antisemitism. EU Ministers and Ambassadors present.

Antisemitism goes against our model of society. We are well equipped to fight it.

In the Middle East now is the time for diplomacy.

Putting the #No2Antisemitism EU strategy into action - discussing with EU and US colleague alongside Sirpa Rautio how to address challenges for Jews & democracy since the Oct 7 Hamas attack. 🙏 to our host Karoline Edtstadler for your leadership in the fight against #antisemitism .

On #YomHaShoah #WeRemember the victims of the #Shoah & honor their lives.

This year our thoughts are also with families of 7/10 victims & we call for their release. #BringThemHomeNOW

Faced with a tsunami of #antisemitism we stand with #JewishCommunity & recommit to fight it.

Indeed the arson attack in Nożyk Synagogue where we commemorated last year the 80 anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising is extremely distressing.

Full solidarity with the Jewish community in Poland as they cope with the shock.

Good to see swift action from the authorities

I condemn the arson attack on the Nożyk Synagogue & against the Jewish community in Poland. The tsunami of antisemitism that we have seen in Europe since 7 Oct is dangerous and a threat to Jews above all, but also to all those who cherish democracy and its values. #FullSolidarity

As you gather around the Seder table may you draw strength from the story of liberation of the Israelites from slavery & hope that those still in captivity will soon fill the #emptychairs at your table.

#LetThemGoNow

Thank you for the invitation Federica Mogherini to engage with students and staff College of Europe. We talked about Jewish life, antisemitism and how to overcome polarisation in European society while keeping an open debate.
#ForgingAlliances

We are delighted to receive Katharina von Schnurbein Katharina von Schnurbein, European Commission coordinator on combatting antisemitism and fostering Jewish life, and Alina Bricman, former president of EUJS - European Union of Jewish Students, to engage with our students today.

To fight #antisemitism you have to make it visible. Through monitoring & recording antisemitic hate crime, but also the toxic lawful but awful daily incidents, ENMA will do just that.

Pleased to launch this EU action yesterday in Berlin.

At the 'Tracks of time: Preserving Holocaust memory via railway remembrance' by Belgian Presidency of the Council of the EU 2024:
🗣️'We should not shy away to make radical decisions on what needs to happen. I hope this conf will lead to concrete actions regarding preserving Holocaust memory & Jews living in Europe.'

Joining European Parliament #LIBE workshop on equality today to present the #EUAntisemitismStrategy that lead to national strategies and actions and the use of @theIhra definition.

‼️ Fighting antisemitism is not a responsibility for the Jews, but for all who cherish democracy‼️

Listening to first hand experiences of #antisemitism on campuses & threats/attacks on Jewish students in the aftermath of 7/10 is extremely concerning.

When Jews do not feel safe, their right to education is hampered. Unacceptable!

Univ leadership must act decisively!

Das Gespräch bei #ZiB2 zusammengefasst im DER STANDARD

derstandard.at/story/30000002…

Ich sprach mit Armin Wolf #ZiB2 über den gegenwärtigen Tsunami von #Antisemitismus , die Situation der Juden in Europa, Täter-Opfer Umkehr, rote Linien, das Existenzrecht #Israels und die Entschiedenheit der #EU gegen Antisemitismus und Hass vorzugehen.

tvthek.orf.at/profile/ZIB-2/…

L'éducation est un droit fondamental. Refuser ce droit aux juifs nous rappelle le plus sombre chapitre de l'histoire #européenne . La différence aujourd'hui en 🇪🇺 est que les autorités défendent les droits des minorités. Dans l'attente d'une action claire des autorités Sciences Po

Pleasure to meet again with Sirpa Rautio, now newly appointed Director of EU Fundamental Rights ➡️ #HumanRights 👏 to discuss - together with her wonderful team - how to enhance our common fight against #Antisemitism in the light of current explosion of Jew-hatred and antisemitic incidents in Europe.

On #IWD2024 let’s be reminded of the horrific sexual assault & rape of Israeli women & hostages since 7/10 by Hamas perpetrators.

There is no reason to hold them one day longer.
