Prime Minister Rama, in conversation with AJC Transatlantic Institute Director Daniel Schwammenthal, highlights Albania’s friendship with the Jewish people and his nation’s efforts to build a strong relationship with Israel.
“Remko Leemhuis has the unique experience, passion, and vision to lead AJC Berlin into a new era that will deepen relations across Germany — a country that could not be more important to the prosperity and health of a democratic Europe, to transatlantic relations, to Israel, and to the Jewish people,” said Simone Rodan-Benzaquen, Director of AJC Europe.
American Jewish Committee (AJC) Berlin welcomes FC Bayern Munich’s adoption of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) Working Definition of Antisemitism. Today’s announcement coincides with International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
American Jewish Committee (AJC) regrets today’s unanimous Supreme Court decision in the Guelph Treasure case (Federal Republic of Germany v Philipp), which sends the plaintiffs back to Germany to seek justice for their Holocaust-era art restitution claims. “Unfortunately, Germany’s record on these matters has been deficient,” said Rabbi Andrew Baker, AJC Director of International Jewish Affairs.
For 40 years, AJC, in cooperation with the Konrad Adenauer Foundation, has brought American Jewish leaders to Germany and German young professionals to the U.S. to learn about Jewish life, the legacy of the Holocaust, the scourge of antisemitism, and the transatlantic partnership. Please join us as we commemorate the 40th anniversary of this exchange committed to this critical relationship.
