"TO BELGIUM, SPECIFICALLY YOU MUST DROP THE RIDICULOUS AND ANTI SEMITIC 'PROSECUTION' NOW OF THE 3 JEWISH RELIGIOUS FIGURES (MOHELS),"
"He singled out for criticism Belgian Health Minister Frank Vandenbroucke, calling him "very rude and quite obnoxious.""
""Any suggestion that Belgium is antisemitic is false, offensive, and unacceptable. Belgium condemns antisemitism with the greatest firmness," Prévot wrote."
Belgium summoned U.S. ambassador Bill White following his social media posts accusing Belgian officials of antisemitism tied to an investigation of three Jewish religious figures (mohels) suspected of conducting circumcisions without required medical training. White tagged U.S. political figures and personally criticized Belgian Health Minister Frank Vandenbroucke. Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prévot said personal attacks and interference in judicial matters violate diplomatic norms and called any suggestion of Belgian antisemitism false and unacceptable. The Belgian Foreign Ministry reminded the ambassador of diplomatic rules, the separation of powers, and emphasized noninterference in an independent judiciary while reaffirming partnership with the United States.
