IHRA experts determined that in order to begin to address the problem of antisemitism, there must be clarity about what antisemitism is.

Spain has been a member of the IHRA since 2008. It is one of 34 member countries.

The Federation of Jewish Communities of Spain thanked the Spanish government for its decision.
