Poland’s Chief Rabbi Welcomes Investigation of Ultra-Nationalist March After Meeting with Ruling Party Leader

Leaders of Poland’s Jewish community met with the head of the country’s ruling Law and Justice Party, Jarosław Kaczyński, to discuss a wide range of issues including rising trends of anti-Semitism.

The meeting came amidst a heightened international focus on Poland’s relationship with its Jewish community, after a march to commemorate national independence — organized by ultra-nationalist groups — was marked by anti-Semitic and racist chants and imagery. Now, over a week from the march held on November 11, Polish prosecutors have opened an investigation as to whether its organizers violated laws against “public propagating of fascism and calls for hatred.”
