Israel's Ambassador to the European Union, Avi Nir, has strongly criticized the British Green Party's decision to define Zionism as racism. Nir stated, "If Zionism is racism, then I am a proud racist." He asserted that the "real racists" are the Green Party members who supported this resolution and opposed an amendment intended to protect Jewish party members. The ambassador characterized the decision as based on "hatred, lies, and arrogance," adding that it would not alter the reality of Israel's existence nor weaken the Jewish people's resolve to defend their land and rights.
