MOSCOW (Sputnik) — This weekend, Iran staged its third Holocaust cartoon contest, attracting cartoonists from some 50 countries. Many works presented at the event reportedly mocked the genocide and suffering of the Jewish people.
Iran "denies the Holocaust, mocks the Holocaust, and is preparing another Holocaust and I think all the countries of the world need to stand up and condemn this unequivocally," Netanyahu said as quoted by The Times of Israel newspaper.
The first contest of this kind took place in 2006 and was supported by then-Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who frequently expressed his denial of Holocaust.
