MUNICH – Ahead of his attendance at this week’s Munich Security Conference, World Jewish Congress President Ronald S. Lauder issued the following statement:
“Amid growing geopolitical turbulence and a disturbing rise in antisemitism, it is essential that world leaders stand firmly behind U.S. President Donald J. Trump’s initiatives to promote stability, ensure the safety of the Jewish people, and advance peace.
“Key among these is the recent sanctioning of UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, a dangerous figure who continues to use her position to promote discredited conspiracy theories, divisive and antisemitic narratives, and who represents an extremist ideological agenda rather than that of the United Nations.
“As I meet with leaders in Munich and in the weeks ahead, I will advocate for a clear moral line to be drawn. Individuals such as Ms. Albanese must be removed from the UN before more damage can be done to the Jewish people – and the institution’s mission.”
The World Jewish Congress, together with the American Jewish Committee, will host delegates of the Munich Security Conference this coming Friday for a Shabbat dinner at the city’s Ohel Jakob Synagogue.
A World Jewish Congress delegation, led by Amb. Ronald S. Lauder, will hold bilateral meetings and related engagements with summit participants throughout the conference.
