The Mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, announced yesterday afternoon by a tweet her decision to illuminate the facade of the City Hall of Paris with a flag of Israel to demonstrate solidarity with Jerusalem following the Sunday attack that hit 4 young people of 20 years.
Crif notes with satisfaction a significant decrease in racist and anti-Semitic acts and threats in France in 2016 and the corresponding decrease in anti-Muslim acts.
Crif has learned with indignation the meeting between leaders of the National Front and representatives of an alleged Jewish French organization.
Crif strongly condemns the decision of the French government to apply double labeling of Israeli products.
Sunday marked one year since the attacks.
France's Jewish umbrella bodies on Thursday rallied opposite the French Foreign Ministry in Paris to protest France's failure to vote against UNESCO resolutions that ignore Jewish ties to Jerusalem.
