U.S President says no tolerance for anti-semitism on campuses

today8 May, 2024

Background

U.S President Joseph Biden said there is no room for anti-semitism in our world, and emphasised that student protesters are allowed to exercise their freedom of speech against investment in Israel, but not to speak out against the country’s existence. He was making a speech at an annual Holocaust memorial event at the Capitol in which the killing of six million Jews is remembered. Caroline Malone reports from Washington.
