The Holocaust crime should never be forgotten and should never be repeated. President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky wrote about this in Telegram on Holocaust Remembrance Day on Monday, January 27.

" It was a purposeful attempt by the Nazis to erase the whole people - to kill all their people, to destroy everything that reminded of Jews. Six million victims. The crime of the Holocaust must never be repeated. But gradually, unfortunately, the memory of the Holocaust is becoming weaker. And the evil that tries to destroy the lives of entire peoples still remains in the world,"

Zelensky said that the day before, together with rabbis, representatives of the diplomatic corps and government officials, they honored the memory of men and women, adults and children - millions of people killed during the Holocaust.

" We must overcome the hatred that breeds bullying and murder. We must not allow unconsciousness. And this is the mission of everyone to do everything so that evil does not win, ”the head of state noted.
