The legacy left by the survivors of the Holocaust needs to be passed down to each generation, Prime Minister Viorica Dancila said, at the wreath-laying ceremony at the Holocaust Memorial Monument.
"My participation, alongside distinguished gusts, in a solemn event as the one today, confirms the size of the moral obligation which lies with all of us to make all efforts in order to counter any sort of anti-Semitic, xenophobic manifestation and to prevent such tragedies from ever taking place," Viorica Dancila showed.
In Romania, by Government Decision no. 672/5 May 2004, the date of 9 October (marking the beginning of the Jews' deportation to Transnistria, in 1941) was approved as the official national commemoration of the Holocaust Remembrance Day.
