Last Statement of Ambassador Aviva Raz Shechter at the HRC
Item 7 is nothing but a systematic mechanism of discrimination against Israel and Israelis, one deeply rooted in the culture of this Council and of some of its member states.
During today's urgent debate on racism at #HRC43, @AmbRazShechter reiterated that Israel is committed to engage its best efforts in the struggle for equality and in eliminating the scourge of #racism, as exemplified in its domestic policies.
#Racism exists everywhere. But open & democratic countries are better equipped to address it.
The international community should not shy away from examining the mechanisms that allow racism to flourish under dictatorships & ruthless tyrants. #HRC43
