During the conference, Germany's commissioner for human rights policy, Claudia Roth, criticized Austria, which houses OSCE headquarters, for "not properly recognizing the importance of this two-day antisemitism conference," according to a BBC translation of a news report published in Die Presse, a Vienna daily.
Roth appeared to be exploiting longstanding political tensions between the two countries, which have been exacerbated in recent days because of rivalry between Germany's left-wing government and Austria's right-wing coalition.
But Roth's criticism appeared to be also an extension of a deliberate policy of her Green Party of allying itself with the Jewish community.
