None

President Reuven Rivlin spoke at the state memorial ceremony for Holocaust Memorial Day at Jerusalem's Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum.

 

Speaking on rampant anti-Semitism in Europe and around the world, the president said, "We will never extend a hand to those who disavow the truth or who try to obfuscate it. Not on the part of individuals or organizations, heads of parties or heads of state."

 

"The Jewish people will forever bear the standard of combating anti-Semitism and racism. No political or economic interests can cause us to turn the other way," the president added.
