US envoy Lipstadt: Antisemitism won’t disappear, but we have the power to address it – After record number of antisemitic incidents in US last year, Biden ambassador suggests measuring her success by how many foreign governments are seriously dealing with Jew-hatred | Timesofisrael

In an op-ed published Wednesday for Passover, US President Joe Biden laid out his administration’s approach to combating antisemitism.
“Under my presidency, we continue to condemn antisemitism at every turn. Failure to call out hate is complicity. Silence is complicity. And we will not be silent,” he wrote on CNN’s website.
Biden touted his decision to appoint Holocaust scholar Deborah Lipstadt as the first ambassador-level special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism; the visits by Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff — the first Jewish spouse of a US president or vice president — to Poland and Germany to promote Holocaust awareness; the convening of a White House summit on hate-fueled violence; the crafting of an inter-agency strategy for combating antisemitism slated to be released later this year; and the hosting of White House events that reinforce Jewish culture as essential to the American story.
