Speaking of the sharp rise of anti-Semitism in Europe, President Metsola spoke of Stars of David being spray-painted onto Jewish homes, Molotov cocktails thrown at a Jewish synagogue and a community centre, Jewish cemeteries being desecrated and vandalised, and parents asking their children to hide their religious beliefs for fear of retribution.
On the eve of the 85th anniversary of Pogromnacht (the November pogroms), anti-Semitism is a warning sign that matters to us all, said the President, underlining that Jewish communities in Europe must feel safe. The European Parliament remains committed to combatting anti-Semitism; urgent and immediate measures are needed to fight hate and discrimination, she concluded.
