".
Today, we commemorate the atrocities of a large and powerful state that was founded upon the principle of inequality of people, and which therefore thought it was entitled to starve and subsequently slaughter peoples it considered undesirable in its own country and in other countries. It is important that this is now widely condemned and that virtually everyone wants to prevent a repeat of it. Even the parties represented in this Parliament who can be associated most with the Nazi past have not voted against the resolution but abstained, one of the arguments being that my group is also one of the parties submitting the resolution. My group was divided over the text, because it appears that the major role of Communists in the resistance to Nazi barbarism was concealed on purpose, and without amendments, one could be forgiven for thinking that Poland shares the responsibility with Nazi Germany for the destruction of millions of Jews. As a descendant of the victims who were killed in Auschwitz, I do not so much consider the precise text as I do the extent of the condemnation. Auschwitz should teach us that that humanity can only survive on the basis of human dignity, equality and solidarity."@en1
