Minister-delegate Plumb: Romania`s Gov`t interested in Roma issue

Romania's Government is committed to the Roma issue, while the 500 years of slavery, extermination policies enforced by vile regimes still have visible effects, stated Rovana Plumb, Minister-delegate for European Funds, in a message conveyed at the opening conference to the "Genocide against Roma - Remember to resist / Genocid impotriva Romilor - Amintiti-va sa rezistati" exhibition.

"It is the reason we put in a lot of efforts and we allocate important resources to combat all forms of discrimination and social exclusion, of racist manifestations and discourses spreading hatred in the public sphere. Only along these lines will we be able to contribute to the strengthening of an inclusive, safe, generous European space for all it citizens, irrespective of their ethnic origins or social class, in full observance of the human rights and cultural identity," said Plumb.

She recalled that on the night between August 2 - 3, 1944, 3,000 Roma people, women, children, elderly women and men were sent to the gas chambers in the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp.

"Their tragic end was just a puny part of the immense suffering of millions of innocent people who were convicted and exterminated by the Nazis and their allies during the Second World War. It is with sadness and profound regret that we need to recall that some of the Romanian Government decision-makers of the time contributed to the Holocaust against the Jews and the Roma. (...) We do not forget the Nazi crimes and the tragedies suffered by our citizens during the Second World War. We take full responsibility for this black page in history, part of the collective memory and whose consequences can still be felt to this day, in the economic and social marginalisation most Roma ethnics face," the Minister-delegate further said.
