Following the horrific terror attack on the State of Israel on October 7th, EAJC leaders addressed presidents, governments, parliaments, and diplomatic missions of the Euro-Asian countries, including Armenia, Georgia, Croatia, Moldova, New Zealand, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Ukraine, Kosovo, Japan, Sri Lanka, and Albania.
EAJC called state leaders on unconditional condemnation of the Hamas terrorist organization, supporting Israel’s right to carry out a military operation in response and taking measures to guarantee the security of local Jewish communities. EAJC also suggested considering legal measures aimed at recognizing Hamas as a terrorist organization and outlawing its public support.
“Now, in these most challenging days for the people of Israel, when the death toll of the atrocious terrorist attacks on our citizens rises daily, and we get more and more horrifying testimonies, we need a voice of the civilized world condemning the inhuman brutality of Hamas terrorists.
The Euro-Asian Jewish Congress is ready to assist any legal process, aiming to ban the Hamas terrorist organization and outlaw its supporters. Today we call on the heads of Jewish communities and state leaders to initiate and advance the anti-terror legislation. It would mean much for the Jewish people and could be a strong move in bilateral relations with the Jewish State.
This is also a vulnerable time for Jewish communities outside Israel. In addition to the horrors committed here, Hamas terrorists are determined to incite hatred toward Jews worldwide and encourage a wave of violence. In given conditions, we have to takе precautions and strengthen the security of the Jewish communities worldwide, while strictly prosecuting any hate manifestation and violence toward Jews or the Jewish State.”
