"There can be no compromise with antisemitism." Watch Secretary Rubio's recorded remarks at the Foreign Ministers' Conference on Combating Antisemitism below. @IsraelMFA
On July 18, 1994, Iranian-backed terrorists attacked the @InfoAMIA Jewish community center in Buenos Aires. We remember the 85 victims who lost their lives, and we stand with the Argentine people and Jewish communities around the world seeking justice.
Honored to have led a very meaningful AMIA commemoration ceremony in Washington, alongside Chairman @RepBrianMast, @InfoAMIA President Osvaldo Armoza and @StateDept Legal Adviser Reed Rubinstein. In the US Congress, we remembered the 85 innocent lives lost in this brutal…

As the child of Holocaust survivors and representing the greatest country in the world, visiting the Memorial de la Shoah as my first stop in France was deeply personal. The memory of the Shoah demands vigilance. Fighting antisemitism will be at the heart of my mission.…
Today I am imposing sanctions on UN Human Rights Council Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese for her illegitimate and shameful efforts to prompt @IntlCrimCourt action against U.S. and Israeli officials, companies, and executives. Albanese’s campaign of political and economic…
These horrifying attacks are the latest incidents threatening Australia’s Jewish community. The United States appreciates the Australian government’s swift response and urges Australia and all nations to use every available tool to fight antisemitism.
The United States condemns antisemitism anywhere in the world and appreciates the Australian government's swift response to this incident.
The @StateDept has revoked the US visas for the members of the Bob Vylan band in light of their hateful tirade at Glastonbury, including leading the crowd in death chants. Foreigners who glorify violence and hatred are not welcome visitors to our country.
The State Department was honored to host @WorldJewishCong leaders from the U.S., Canada, and Mexico this week for an important conversation about safeguarding Jewish communities across the hemisphere and around the world. @StateDept_NEA @WHAAsstSecty @USUN @UnderSecStateJ photo…
The Office of the Special Envoy and @USAmbOAS hosted @OAS_official member states and observers in Antigua and Barbuda for a high-level dialogue on confronting antisemitism in the Americas. Strengthening regional cooperation is crucial in the fight against this hatred.
Chargé d’affaires, a.i. Daniel Koski met yesterday with Jakob Finci, President of the Jewish Community in Bosnia and Herzegovina, to reaffirm the United States' support for religious freedom and interreligious dialogue to foster stability in the country. CDA Koski reiterated the…
We are deeply alarmed by the cancellation of an @europeanrabbis convening in Sarajevo. Antisemitism cannot be tolerated, and the United States will continue to call for the safeguarding of Jewish life globally.
Good meeting with MP Silviu Vexler to discuss antisemitism, freedom of speech, and religious freedom. As @SecRubio has said “the United States will confront antisemitism with determination and resolve.”
The vandalism of Canada's National Holocaust Monument is a reprehensible act of antisemitic hatred. Such cowardly actions have no place in society. We stand in solidarity with Canadians in condemning this vile act.
Vandalism at the National Holocaust monument is inexcusable. To desecrate the memory of the 6 million Jews and millions of others murdered by the Nazis needs to be denounced by each and every one of us.
Thank you @ReichmanUni for the opportunity to speak with students and faculty about the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism. We urge everyone to embrace and use these practices in the fight against antisemitism.
October 7 = mass antisemitic terror. The Office of the Special Envoy heard from Tal Shoham about the horrors of Hamas captivity and the heroic tales of those still held. We also visited the Empty Shabbat Table on the National Mall to express solidarity following Sunday’s…
The #Manara_Center_for_Coexistence_and_Dialogue had the pleasure of welcoming Dr. Scott Lasensky, Senior Bureau Official at the U.S. Office to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS), for an insightful exchange on strengthening interfaith cooperation, addressing hate speech, and…
Israeli embassy staff murdered outside a Jewish community gathering in Washington. Jewish sites vandalized in Paris. And now innocents attacked in Boulder. In recent days we have seen murderous, hateful, and violent acts of antisemitism and terror. Inaction is not an option.
We're united in prayer for the victims of a targeted terror attack this afternoon in Boulder. Terror has no place in our great country.
