Perhaps unsurprisingly, a number of nations are boycotting this anti-racism meeting. The United States, Canada, Israel, Italy, Holland and Australia will all not be attending. I think I remember Sweden not being willing to attend either, but it's not mentioned in the article and I may be wrong about that.
The fact that certain parties feel the need to once again make what could be a positive event into a platform upon which to preach restriction of free speech and launch criticism specifically at Israel is regrettable. |
