In a letter addressed to the institutions of the European Union, 41 European organizations expressed their concern over the failure of the Union’s institutions to take any action that would combat anti-Islam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The organizations emphasized that “the European Council resolutions on racism and combating anti-Semitism did not contribute to ensuring a solution to the structural and institutional discrimination in Europe against Africans and Asians, not only Muslims.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
