On Friday 26 of January, Polish lawmakers passed a law sanctioning the use of the term "Polish death camps". Prosecutions may also be brought against anyone who "attributes to the Polish nation or state the responsibility or co-responsibility for the crimes committed by the German Third Reich [...]". Crif wants to express his indignation at such a law.
Crif calls on public authorities in France to take immediate action against those attacking Jews.
For the second year in a row, Crif associates with the World Jewish Congress for the #WeRemember campaign, which aims to raise awareness of the Holocaust and commemorate Holocaust victims around the world.
Since Donald Trump's announcement on the status of Jerusalem, Germany is facing a new wave of anti-Semitism. Crif has been pleased to speak with Josef Schuster, the President of the Central Council of Jews in Germany (Zentralrat der Juden in Deutschland), to discuss on the situation of the German Jewish community.
Crif has been very happy to live 2017 with you. We are mostly excited to see what will happen in 2018!
The Crif is worried to see the far-right parties on our doorstep. How to imagine the harmonious development of Europe with populist parties that want to destroy it?
