Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said on International Holocaust Remembrance Day that every new generation must know the truth about this tragedy.

The head of state said this in a post on Facebook, Ukrinform reports.

"Today, the world commemorates the millions of Holocaust victims. The Nazi crime that will never be forgotten. The manmade disaster that claimed the lives of millions of innocent people. Six million Jews were killed... Every new generation must learn the truth about the Holocaust. Human life must remain the highest value for all nations in the world," Zelensky said.

According to him, it is also important to remember the heroism of those "who, despite not knowing whether good would triumph over evil, kept goodness in their hearts and saved other people's lives."

"Unfortunately, we do not know all such salvation stories; many names of the Righteous and saviors remain unknown. But every known name must be preserved indefinitely. So that humanity always remembers that even in the darkest of times, it is worth believing and helping the light to triumph," Zelensky said.
