France has summoned the US Ambassador, Jared Kushner, amid allegations of antisemitism. French officials have expressed deep concerns over Kushner's recent remarks suggesting that antisemitism is on the rise in Europe.
The French Foreign Ministry called the remarks "unacceptable" and "misleading," stating that they could harm the country's efforts to combat antisemitism. France has been at the forefront of fighting antisemitism in Europe, with President Macron recently unveiling a national plan to tackle the issue.
Kushner's comments come at a sensitive time for France, where antisemitic incidents have been on the rise in recent years. The country has seen a sharp increase in hate crimes targeting Jewish communities, prompting calls for stronger action against antisemitism.
French officials have made it clear that they expect a full explanation from the US Ambassador and are demanding an apology for his remarks. The incident has strained diplomatic relations between the two countries, with many in France calling for Kushner to be reprimanded for his comments.
As the situation continues to escalate, both France and the US are under pressure to address the issue and find a resolution to the growing tensions over antisemitism.
