Day of Memory, Meloni “We condemn the complicity of the fascist regime, racial laws a dark page of Italian history”

ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “On January 27, eighty-one years ago, with the fall of the gates of Auschwitz, the world saw with its eyes the abyss of the Shoah. Since then, everything has changed. The greatest machine of death conceived in the history of humanity showed to all its ferocity, its systematicity, its diabolical design. Millions of people torn from their homes and killed in the extermination camps, just because of Jewish religion. A plan conceived and implemented to erase from Europe every trace of the presence, millenary and fruitful, of Jews and Jewish communities.” In a note the President of the Council, Giorgia Meloni.

“On Memory Day we remember the names and surnames of the victims and renew the memory of what happened, even through the precious testimony of the survivors and their descendants. Today we celebrate the Justins of every nation, who did not hesitate to risk their lives to oppose the Nazi design and save innocent lives. On this day we return to condemn the complicity of the fascist regime in persecutions, in rallies, in deportations. A dark page of Italian history, sealed by the ignominy of the 1938 racial laws – continues Meloni -. Unfortunately, many years later, anti-Semitism has not yet been definitively defeated. It is a morbid that has returned to spread, with new and virulent forms. Today we reaffirm our commitment to prevent and combat every decline of this plague, which poisons our societies and aims to demolish the principles of freedom and respect that are the basis of social cohesion.”.
