The Hellenic Parliament on Friday observed one minute’s silence to commemorate the Greek Jewish Martyrs and Heroes of the Holocaust and those killed by the Nazis.
“Today we honour the memory of the six million Jews and many other victims of the unprecedented cruelty and horror of the Nazi regime. We also honour, however, all those that managed to survive, the living witnesses of the death camps during the second world war,” said 3rd Parliamentary Vice-President Thanasis Bouras during the event.
He stressed that all humanity has a duty on this day to remember the inhuman actions and events of the Holocaust, and to continue the fight against nazism as WWII slips further into the past and the number of survivors dwindles.
