Influencing French politics for Zion
Cuckierman frequently intervenes in France’s internal affairs in favor of Israel, frequently pushing the line that the French government is not mustering enough effort to fight “antisemitism” in France.
He has also expressed concern over the rise of nationalist forces in France, specifically stating disdain about the possibility of National Rally’s Marine Le Pen being voted as President of France.1
Cukierman has praised France’s foreign relations with Israel. However, he has claimed that France’s “lacking” fight against “anti-Semitism at home” is “incompatible” with the country’s foreign policy and support for Israel.
