Партията Златна зора е пословична с крещящо антисемитската и ксенофобската си реторика и е отговорна за извършването на нападения срещу евреи и чужденци. Европейският съюз на еврейските студенти пусна петиция, призоваща Комитета на Съвета на Европа за Равенство и Недискриминация в Парламентарната асамблея да отстрани представителката на Златна зора Елени Зарулиа от редиците си. В реч в гръцкия парламент, Зарулиа наскоро назова имигрантите “под-човеци” (гр). Централният съвет на еврейските общности в Гърция също изпрати писмо с молба Зарулиа да бъде отстранена.

And it’s not your fire to play with. Matthew Kupfer on Registan.net argues that the Italian singer who has made his name in Kazakhstan by encouraging Kazakhs to speak their mother tongue “is wading into a debate that really is none of his business”.
