Crif met with the President of the Jewish Community in the Republic of Macedonia, Berta Romano Nikolikj, in order to know and understand better the little Jewish community of Macedonia. We aslo got in touch with CEO of the Holocaust memorial center of the Jews from Macedonia, Goran Sadikarijo, who told us everything about the upcoming exhibition about the history of the Macedonian Jews.
"We call upon all the institutions of the State and the City, the Justice, the Religious and Spiritual Authorities of the country and the Civil Society, to condemn unambiguously and without reservation this desecration and to stand with absolutely zero tolerance against such phenomena of violence and intolerance."
This week, the Yom Haatzmaut celebrations began throughout Israel and around the world. Israel is celebrating its 70th birthday and the world intends to celebrate this new decade as it should!
The ceremony of reading the names of the Jewish deportees of France, organized by Paris Shoah Memorial, took place on the 11th and 12th of April. It continued uninterrupted during 24 hours. Francis Kalifat, President of Crif, was present and took part in the reading.
