Brazilian Jews Condemn ‚Antisemitic‘ Tropes Leveled at Prominent Israeli-Born Economist | Algemeiner.com
Brazil’s Jewish community has reacted furiously to comments made during a television interview in which a senior Jewish economist was described using antisemitic tropes.
The comments about Ilan Goldfajn — the recently elected president of the Inter-American Development Bank — were made during a discussion on the popular television show Jornal GGN. One of the participants, Paulo Nogueira Batista Jr — an economist and former International Monetary Fund official — argued that Goldfajn would be hostile to the newly installed left-wing government of Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, citing his Jewishness as a key reason.
