"Madam President, whilst I welcome today’s resolution, it is tragic that 70 years on from the Nazi atrocities such a resolution is even necessary. It is quite clear from the statistics that the number of anti-Semitic attacks, both verbal and physical, is on the rise in Europe, including in my own country, the United Kingdom, particularly on the internet. Indeed, we saw in Paris and in Brussels in the last few years actual terrorist attacks specifically committed against a kosher supermarket and the Jewish Museum in Brussels.
As the populations of EU Member States become ever more diverse it is important we pay close attention to encouraging and ensuring that the successful social cohesion and integration of all communities is worked towards. I am pleased, therefore, that the resolution goes beyond looking just at the topic at hand, but at the need to ease tensions across all the divides. I particularly welcome the emphasis on cross-border cooperation with regard to this issue, and the need to work together in times of terrorist attacks, particularly in the realm of sharing intelligence on extremist groups. Finding ways to prevent the radicalisation of vulnerable individuals will also be key in this area."@en1
