German Chancellor Olaf Scholz condemned on Thursday the rise in anti-Semitism in the country, calling it "shameful", Ednews reports citing zdf.de.
"Essentially this is about keeping the promise given again and again in the decades since 1945...the promise 'never again'," Scholz underlined while holding a speech in a Berline synagogue, on the anniversary of the Nazi pogrom that began the Holocaust. The chancellor vowed to protect the Jewish people living in Germany.
According to the Federal Police, since the start of the Israel-Hamas clashes on October 7, a large number of anti-semitic incidents have taken place in the country.
