The manifestations of hatred, racism and anti -Semitism must not have a place in our lives. We must not admit a repetition of history. The Prosecutor General of the Slovak Republic Maroš Žilinka said this on the social network on the occasion of Tuesday Memorial Day of Holocaust and Racial Violence.
- Hate speech has no place in our society.
- The consensus that history must not be repeated is essential.
- The Attorney General draws attention to the cruelty of the Jewish Code.
- The Slovak Republic reminds September 9 as a memorial day.
- Citizens of Jewish descent were deprived of fundamental rights to the Jewish Code.
“On the ninth September 1941 in the territory of the Slovak Republic, the so -called Jewish Code came into effect. Extensive anti -Semitic regulation (270 paragraphs) – inhuman, cruel, immoral, deprivating citizens’ civil rights only for their Jewish origin. He pointed out Žilinka.
The Slovak Republic commemorates 9 September as a memorial day – Day of Holocaust Victims and Racial Violence. On 9 September 1941, the Government of the War SR adopted the Jewish Code, which established a special legal regime for citizens of Jewish origin and religion and fundamentally limited their civil, religious, social and fundamental human rights in the territory of the then Slovakia.
