German Bundestag Passes Resolution to Combat Antisemitism

In a decisive move, the Bundestag has adopted a resolution aimed at protecting Jewish life in Germany, titled ‘Never Again is Now: Protect, Preserve, and Strengthen Jewish Life.’ Supported by multiple parties including CDU/CSU, SPD, Greens, and FDP, the non-binding resolution calls for closing legal gaps and strengthening repressive measures against antisemitism. The debate highlighted concerns over varying definitions of antisemitism, particularly regarding its relation to Israel. Some lawmakers criticized the resolution’s phrasing, advocating for a distinction between democratic and anti-democratic elements rather than blanket regional assumptions.
