On 27 January, we honour the millions of lives lost and stand against hatred in all its forms.
The pink triangle was used by the Nazis to mark and persecute LGBTQ+ people. It is a symbol of suffering that has since become one of resilience and pride.
Never forget. Never again.
Today we remember the six million Jewish women, men and children, hundreds of thousands of Roma, and all the other victims murdered during the Holocaust. We also mark the 81st anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz-Birkenau.
It is our duty to teach future generations about European history, including its darkest chapters.
Never again.
