Netanyahu calls for academic freedom on Holocaust
Netanyahu praises Poland for recognizing the significance of the Holocaust.
He says he rejects “actions aimed at blaming Poland or the Polish nation as a whole” for Holocaust crimes and only acknowledges that “some people, regardless of their origin, religion or world view revealed their darkest side at that time.”
He says researchers and others need to be able to exercise free speech and academic freedom on the Holocaust “without any fear of legal obstacles.”
“No law can and no law will change that,” he says.
