The Minister of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory, Ángel Víctor Torres, has reaffirmed the commitment of the Government of Spain to enforce the Law of Democratic Memory and has said that “today, more than ever, it is necessary that we learn from the horror lived in the Nazi concentration camps and human cruelty in order to prevent the resurgence of totalitarian ideologies.”
They are statements in Mauthausen (Austria) during the international events this Sunday in memory of the victims of Nazism, on the 79th anniversary of the liberation of that concentration camp. The events were attended by a delegation of the Government of Spain headed by Minister Torres and the Minister of Social Rights, Consumption and Agenda 2030, Pablo Bustinduy. Along with them were the Secretary of State for Democratic Memory, Fernando Martínez and the Spanish Ambassador to Austria, Aurora Mejía.
