In an opinion published in The Algemeiner, Rabbi Andrew Baker warns about the visit of AUR leader George Simion to Washington, emphasizing that the party promotes antisemitism under the guise of patriotism. Baker states that Simion will try to present himself as a representative of a "patriotic" European party, but in fact, AUR has opposed legislation that combats antisemitism and has attacked members of the Jewish community. The rabbi highlights Romania's progress in Holocaust education but warns that AUR wants to reverse these achievements. He calls for any meeting with American officials to be used to demand reforms within the party, including supporting Holocaust education and removing antisemitic individuals from AUR leadership. Baker, who has been involved in the Wiesel Commission, emphasizes the importance of a clear and critical message addressed to Simion during his visit.
