Rabbi Zamir Isayev, Chief Rabbi of the Sephardic community in Baku, Azerbaijan, issued a public statement expressing deep concern over what he described as France’s inadequate response to the mounting threats facing its Jewish citizens... “As someone living in a Muslim-majority country where Jews feel safe, I find France’s complacency hard to understand,” he wrote,» as reported by The Jerusalem Post.
