The European Commission represented by Wester Meijdam, Policy officer, addressed Estonian law enforcement authorities, security experts and the Jewish community emphasizing the Commission's support and determination to ensure a Europe free from antisemitism.
The further aim of this event was to raise awareness among the authorities on the history of Jewish life and culture in Estonia, but also to identify current and potential challenges to the community, such as specific security issues stemming from antisemitic conspiracy theories or antisemitic bias. The event also aimed at establishing coordination structures and designated contact points to facilitate effective and meaningful communication between the authorities and the Jewish community in Estonia, in order to recognize and address antisemitism in all its forms
