 Today, we remember the more than 500,000 Roma murdered under the Nazi regime. Their lives were extinguished, their culture suppressed, and their stories silenced. 80 years later, we remember the past and commit to do better in the future. We honour Roma’s legacy and continue to fight for a world where diversity is celebrated and where hatred has no place. On #RomaHolocaustDay, we reemphasise our commitment to safeguard the rights of all minority groups. 18 comments
 @Pepijn @EUCommission This is also my point. I would boost the post, if it's edited.  @Pepijn 👍 Oh, yes, Holocaust was much more than "murder". To @EUCommission - it is very important to name it correctly because we live in times where fascists adoring eugenics are a very big problem for the EU and for democracy!  @EUCommission don't you do a terribly racist border control program that regularly denies asylum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontex @hipsterelectron @zentinel17 if u cant ask for asylum (because u are pushed back) u are basically denied asylum @yuribackinthehood i would say that is different, at least how i read and understand that phrasing. It doesn't make push backs okay.  @EUCommission Thank you for sharing this. As a WWII historian, I want to make sure that people do not forget such atrocities. @EUCommission Making 'committments' isn't good enough...exerting pressure on countries to stop criminalizing these peoples, to stop closing their resting places and to stop otherwise actively targeting them.   @EUCommission So we just gonna forget about the EU paying border countries to stop asylum seekers at any cost, and the pro-genocide stance towards israel's current actions? You're watching it happen again, and 50 years from now the scumbag who's taken over your job will post the same pointless commitment post on whatever public platform is available then. Probably while yet another people are being murdered with your support. Guess that commitment ain't worth shit then, is it. @EUCommission You aren’t doing a great job with “all minority groups” and a worse one with Romani… My closest friend is Sinti and what she had to go through in the Netherlands (not even eastern Europe) is just comprehensively fucked! |

@EUCommission Can you maybe update this tooth to include both Roma and Sinti? Or say Romani?
