World Jewish Congress Applauds Ursula von der Leyen’s Bid for Second Term as European Commission President
“The fight against Jew hatred in Europe is a matter close to von der Leyen’s heart. She has worked tirelessly to achieve this since the beginning of her term in office. The first European ‘Strategy on combating antisemitism and fostering Jewish Life’ adopted in 2021 was a milestone. The central position of the Commission’s Coordinator for combating antisemitism and fostering Jewish Life also speaks volumes.” [World Jewish Congress]
