US ambassador in Romania Kathleen Kavalec on Wednesday said that the duty to remember the Holocaust is more pressing than ever, CE Report quotes Agerpres

"Each time I visit this Memorial I am reminded of the vital importance of its lessons. Following the horrific October 7 attack unleashed by Hamas against Israel, the duty to remember the Holocaust is more pressing than ever. Antisemitism has surged throughout the world, including in the United States. The October 7th attack brought to the surface painful memories left by millennia of hatred and violence against the Jewish people. As President Biden said, 'we cannot remember all that Jewish survivors of the Holocaust experienced and then stand silently by when Jews are attacked and targeted again today,'" Kavalec said in her remarks at a Holocaust commemoration in Bucharest.
