King Charles championed diversity and said he was “moved beyond words” by “unimaginable horror” in his tribute to Holocaust Memorial Day.
Praising the theme for this year’s national commemoration of the event – Ordinary People, the King wrote that it “reminds us how it was ordinary people who were the perpetrators, bystanders, rescuers and witnesses to the Holocaust, and its victims”.
He added that all ordinary people “have a role to play and a responsibility to use our gifts for the benefit – not destruction – of our world and humankind.”
Charles also urged those commemorating the atrocities of Nazi Germany to “renew our commitment to work for a world free from identity-based persecution and violence.”
