Three quarters (75%) of Jews in Europe avoid wearing symbols that could identify them as Jewish in public, at least occasionally

The 75% figure specifically refers to Jewish respondents in Italy, not all of Europe as the MEP claimed. The FRA's third survey (published 2024, data collected in 2023) covers multiple EU member states, and percentages vary by country. The claim conflates a country-specific statistic with a Europe-wide figure.
The survey was conducted by the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) and published in 2024, based on data collected in 2023.
The claim omits that this avoidance behavior is occasional rather than constant, and varies significantly across different European countries.
