Thousands of visitors from all over the world commemorate the victims of the Mauthausen concentration camp on Sunday morning, including the Spanish king Felipe VI. and Queen Letizia and federal president Alexander van der Bellen. In the run -up to the Evangelical Lutheran Bishop Michael Chalupka, the law of international law and human rights, the president of the Israeli cultural community (IKG) Vienna, Oskar German, accused Iran and Hamas of it to destroy Israel.
Traditionally, delegations from all over the world come to Mauthausen for the liberation ceremony and put wreaths on the former Appeal Square. The ranks of the survivors of the Holocaust who can still participate are becoming increasingly scarce. Shaul Spielmann (87), whose parents were murdered in the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp and who on 5 May 1945 as a boy as a boy as a boy was exempt from the Gunskirchen concentration camp. Three “Mauthausen-Babys” also participated. Hana Berger-Moran, Mark Olsky and Eva Clarke were born a few days and weeks before the liberation in the concentration camp or on prisoners between the camps.
Chalupka: Do not be quiet when the international law is kicked with feet
An ecumenical service in advance, celebrated by the Linz Diocesan bishop Manfred Scheuer, Chalupka and the Greek -Orthodox bishop Vicaris Ioannis Nikolitsis, also has a tradition.
In his sermon, Chalupka remembered that “the experiences made in such places led to the fact that human rights were codified internationally after the end of the Nazi rule” and when the United Nations were founded, human rights were anchored in international law. “If the universal validity of human rights is questioned today and international law is taken on feet, then we cannot remain silent,” he warned.
German: “Deduction anti -Semitism” by Hamas
De president van de Israëlische cultuurgemeenschap (IKG) Wenen, Oskar Deutsch, trok ook parallellen aan Iran en Hamas voor het Israëlische monument: “De ideologische nakomelingen van het nazisme zijn nog steeds actief in hun kelders van een zevende miljoen, ze zijn in hun ambt van de Iranische is in de Irana van het Irana van de Iranus van het Irana van het Irana van het Irana van het Irana van het Irana of the Irana of the Irana of the Iran in the terrorist tunnels of Hamas, where they put their destruction into practice and torture and kill Jews.
More than 200,000 people are taken prisoner
