American rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, may not be suitable for an Australian visa because of his history of anti-Semitic remarks, Australia's Minister for Education Jason Clare said
on Wednesday that the proportion of people who believe the Holocaust to be a myth or that the number of its victims was greatly exaggerated was rising.
"Survey after survey, we continue to witness a decline in Holocaust knowledge and awareness. Equally disturbing is the trend towards Holocaust denial and distortion," Gideon Taylor, Claims Conference president, said in a statement published on Wednesday along with the results of a survey conducted in the Netherlands.
Ye, who has been dropped by major corporate partners, including Adidas, and banned from Twitter because of anti-Semitic remarks, denied the Holocaust on a radio talk show late last year in which he also praised Adolf Hitler. Another incident that made headlines last year involving Holocaust denier was former U.S. President Donald Trump's dinner in November with white supremacist Nick Fuentes,by the two top U.S. Republicans, Senator Mitch McConnell and Representative Kevin McCarthy.
Fuentes attended the dinner with Ye. Trump has said the encounter at his Mar-A-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, was inadvertent and that he did not know who Fuentes was.
