The United States summoned its ambassador to France, Charles Kushner, after he criticized the French government's response to a surge in antisemitic incidents, stating that attacks on Jews, vandalism of synagogues, schools, and Jewish-owned businesses occur daily. The French government, represented by Aurore Bergé, acknowledged the rise in antisemitism but emphasized that France has taken firm measures. The Republican Jewish Coalition expressed support for Kushner's stance. French President Emmanuel Macron responded to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's accusations of inaction by rejecting them as offensive to France and warned against politicizing the fight against antisemitism. Macron urged Netanyahu to halt Israel's military actions in Gaza and settlement expansion in the West Bank, describing the current approach as a "deadly headlong rush." The Israeli ambassador to France acknowledged that while France has done a lot against antisemitism, more needs to be done. French religious leaders, including Chief Rabbi Haïm Korsia, condemned Netanyahu's accusations and highlighted the sharp increase in antisemitism since October 7, calling for a diplomatic resolution following the conflict. Macron's office also clarified that France does not support terrorism amid tensions with Israel. The discourse reflects ongoing tensions between France and Israel over the handling of antisemitism and the broader Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
