Gábor Gordon told a press conference on Thursday that the programme will start with the inauguration of a memorial plaque marking the 80th anniversary of the Holocaust at the Dohány Street synagogue, and the march will set off at 3 PM.
Nearly 100 Holocaust survivors are scheduled to be transported by electric cars as part of the march heading to the Keleti railway station, he added.
The 20th March of the Living event will also commemorate the victims of last year’s 7 October terrorist attack in Israel, he said.
Vince Szalay-Bobrovniczky, the deputy state secretary in charge of civil and social relations, said that the government was aware of the sins committed by the government of the time, and its current responsibilities. This is also demonstrated by the special government support granted for the Holocaust 80 memorial year, he added.
