Holland may boycott UN racism conference
The Netherlands is threatening to boycott a United Nations conference on racism next year unless anti-Israel statements are removed from the draft texts being prepared for the meeting, news agency AP reports.
Foreign minister Maxime Verhagen told Dutch radio that he ‘will not be involved in anti-Semitism’ at the meeting, due to be held in Geneva in April. Israel has already pulled out.
