France summons US Ambassador Kushner over ‘unacceptable’ letter about rising antisemitism

WASHINGTON (AP) — France has summoned the American ambassador to Paris after the diplomat, Charles Kushner, wrote a letter to French President Emmanuel Macron alleging the country did not do enough to combat antisemitism.

France’s foreign ministry issued a statement Sunday announcing it had summoned Kushner to appear Monday at the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs and that his allegations “are unacceptable.”

The White House did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment. State Department spokesperson Tommy Pigott on Sunday evening said it stood by Kushner’s comments, adding: “Ambassador Kushner is our U.S. government representative in France and is doing a great job advancing our national interests in that role.”

The summoning of the ambassador is a formal and public notice of displeasure.

Kushner, a real-estate developer, is the father of President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner.

The French foreign ministry, in its statement, said “France firmly rejects these allegations” from Kushner and that French authorities have “fully mobilized” to combat a rise in antisemitic acts since the Oct. 7, 2023 attack by Hamas on Israel, deeming the acts “intolerable.”

France should declare him persona non grata and kick his ass out of the country

1. The antisemitism shtick may work at Columbia University, UVA, etc.

But it won't work in France.

What does TSF intend to do about it? Take away money from France? Impose more tariffs?

This is getting old and it's actually desensitizing valid antisemitism.

2. Trump will demand France pay him $47 trillion or he'll huff and puff

3. And pay in Crypto

7. I'm guessing more tariffs right off, then a billion in cash to his favorite charity...

him.

4. The US is led by brutal toxic crime syndicate and is lecturing others about their morality.

Takes the cake.
