Dr. Moshe Kantor spoke about about some of the current challenges of fighting antisemitism and European values.
He also gave a preview of the Catalogue of Policies to Combat Antisemitism.

Schiffman (New York University) and Mark Weitzman (Simon Wiesenthal Center / International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance).
