Holding white balloons and with the slogan “Never Again”, a large number of people participated today in the March of Remembrance for the extermination of the 50,000 Jews of Thessaloniki and the other victims of the city’s Nazism.
The march – in which the President of the Republic also participated – started at 11.30 in the morning from Eleftherias Square and ended at the old railway station, where the first train to Auschwitz left 80 years ago.
“We are here, in the wake of the tragedy of Tempe, which the entire Greek society is experiencing with feelings of deep destruction, to keep alive the memory of one of the most shameful and painful events of the 20th century,” said the President of the Republic in her speech .
“With the Memorial March we honor the victims of Nazism, fascism, anti-Semitism, we participate in the mourning of their descendants, we listen to the revelatory speech of the few survivors, we join our voice with the thousands of citizens who walk the same route, from the ghettos at the train station, putting into practice the universal slogan NEVER AGAIN”, pointed out Katerina Sakellaropoulou.
