Greece has assumed the rotating presidency of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance for one year, taking over the position from Germany. The Greek foreign ministry said in a statement that the country “is deeply committed to promoting the IHRA’s work, which is key to keeping the memory of the Holocaust alive.” A number of events will be held to educate younger generations and society as a whole so that the meaning of the Holocaust is upheld, and that a Holocaust is never repeated, the statement said.
