Belarus – Jews Condemn President’s Strong Anti-Semitic Attacks.

Belarus -Some Jewish leaders have strongly condemned the harsh anti-Semitic remarks made by Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko during a live radio address.

According to a statement Lukashenko said, in regard to the rural town of Bobruisk, that the problems in the town were a direct result of Jewish activity in the city.

“This is a Jewish town, and Jews do not look after the cities in which they live, they have turned bodruisk into a pigsty. Take Israel for example, I was there and I saw it myself,” the Belarusian leader said. He added that the status of the city improved only after the Jews left, while simultaneously urging “Jews who have money” to return to Bobruisk.

Israel’s ambassador to Minsk was summoned back to Israel for advisement on the incident.
