On the sidelines of the \u201cConference on the Responsibility of Countries, Public Institutions and Individuals in combatting anti-Semitism in the OSCE area\u201d today, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Angelino Alfano, met his Israeli counterpart, Tzachi Hanegbi, at the Farnesina.<\/p>\n
\u201cItaly plays a leading role in combatting all forms of discrimination and intolerance. Since our country is chair of both the OSCE and the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance this year, we have a perfect opportunity to relaunch the theme of combatting anti-Semitism, as this Conference today demonstrates,\u201d said Minister Alfano to his counterpart.<\/p>\n
He then said that the Italian Government is carefully considering the adoption at national level of a definition of anti-Semitism. \u201cI proposed that the Council of Ministers should incorporate the definition of anti-Semitism adopted at the IHRA Plenary meetings in Bucharest in 2016, so that the next Parliament can transpose it into internal law,\u201d added the Minister.<\/p>\n
Finally, with regard to negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians, Alfano said that \u201cItaly and the EU are willing to help defend the two-state solution and reopen political dialogue on the peace process\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On the sidelines of the \u201cConference on the Responsibility of Countries, Public Institutions and Individuals in combatting anti-Semitism in the OSCE area\u201d today, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Angelino Alfano, met his Israeli counterpart, Tzachi Hanegbi, at the Farnesina. \u201cItaly plays a leading role in combatting all forms of discrimination and intolerance.
