Israeli Minister for Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism, Amichai Chikli, has expressed confidence in the Trump administration's commitment to addressing the rise of antisemitism following the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre by Hamas. Chikli highlighted the upcoming role of former Rep. Elise Stefanik as the new U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, emphasizing her dedication to fighting antisemitism.
Stefanik's track record includes advocating against antisemitism at American universities and her recent Senate confirmation where she pledged to combat Jew-hatred at the U.N. She has also criticized the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) for its alleged ties to terrorist activities.
