A/71/325 65. The Federation also submitted relevant resolutions and documentation on follow-up actions taken by member associations in the three years following th e adoption of the above-mentioned resolutions by its General Assemblies. IV. Conclusions and recommendations 66. The Special Rapporteur is grateful to all Governments and to all non-governmental and civil society organizations for the information provided on the measures implemented pursuant to General Assembly resolution 70/139, and in this regard recalls the importance of full cooperation with his mandate, as set out in Human Rights Council resolution 25/32. 67. The Special Rapporteur notes that some submissions referred to the phenomena identified in General Assembly resolution 70/139 and to the proliferation of extreme right-wing groups. Others stressed that no such phenomena existed within their borders. The Special Rapporteur reiterates that the human rights and democratic challenges posed by extremist political parties, movements and groups are universal, and that no country is immune to them, and calls upon States and all other stakeholders to increase their vigilance and to be proactive in strengthening their efforts and political will to recognize and effectively address those challenges. 68. The Special Rapporteur reiterates that any commemorative celebration of the Nazi regime, its allies and related organizations, whether official or unofficial, should be prohibited by States. The Special Rapporteur recalls paragraph 14 of General Assembly resolution 70/139, in which the Assembly stressed that such practices do injustice to the memory of the countless victims of crimes against humanity committed in the Second World War, in particular those committed by the SS organization and by those who fought against the anti-Hitler coalition and collaborated with the Nazi movement, and may negatively influence children and young people, and that failure by States to effectively address such practices is incompatible with the obligations of States Members of the United Nations under its Charter. 69. In this regard, the Special Rapporteur recalls his condemnation of any manifestation of religious intolerance, incitement, harassment or violence against persons or communities on the basis of ethnic origin or religious belief. Furthermore, the Special Rapporteur remains concerned about the continued scapegoating of vulnerable groups, including migrants, asylum seekers and ethnic minorities. Such discourse remains a powerful tool for politicians whose goal is to mobilize the masses to the detriment of social cohesion and human rights. The continued uncensored and unpunished expressions of supremacist, anti-Semitic and hateful opinions by some political leaders may be an indicator that societies are growing dangerously and increasingly tolerant of hate speech and extremist ideas. 70. The Special Rapporteur recalls recommendations made in previous reports to the Human Rights Council (see A/HRC/23/24, A/HRC/26/50, A/HRC/29/47 and A/HRC/32/49) and the General Assembly (see A/68/329, A/69/334 and A/70/321) and wishes to reiterate that these remain valid and current. These recommendations are presented again below. 16-13939 15/20
