None
German Chancellor Angela Merkel underscored the urgency of combating anti-Semitism, racism and hatred more than 70 years after the Holocaust, calling for new ways to keep alive the memory of the millions of people killed by the Nazis.
Merkel, in a video address released ahead of Sunday's International Holocaust Remembrance Day, said it was everyone's responsibility to ensure "zero tolerance" of xenophobia and all forms of anti-Semitism.
"People growing up today must know what people were capable of in the past, and we must work proactively to ensure that it is never repeated," Merkel said.
