Record number of states boycott UN Durban anniversary event
Original: Record number of states boycott UN event for 25th anniversary of anti-Israel Durban conference
A record number of countries boycotted a United Nations event marking the 25th anniversary of the Durban conference, which critics have long accused of harboring anti-Israel bias. The gathering, tied to the 2001 World Conference Against Racism held in Durban, South Africa, drew pushback from numerous states citing the conference's association with antisemitism and the singling out of Israel.
Why now: The scale of the boycott is unusually large, reigniting long-running debate over the Durban conference's legacy of anti-Israel sentiment.
