German Antisemitism Commissioner Dr. Felix Klein Addresses Mayors Summit in Athens, Greece

Dr. Felix Klein — the Federal Government Commissioner for Jewish Life in Germany and the Fight Against Antisemitism — addressed the 2022 Mayors Summit Against Antisemitism in Athens, Greece, earlier this month.

In his remarks, Klein presented Germany’s new “National Strategy Against Antisemitism and for Jewish Life.”

“Recognizing antisemitism in both its old and new forms is an important step in tackling it, and our strategy provides help and guidance in doing this,” he said.

Fighting antisemitism is a task for the “whole of society,” Klein added.

“This means that our national strategy is not directed only at state bodies, but also civil society,” he noted.
