The day remembers the killing of six million Jews, two-thirds of Europe's Jewish population, and millions of others by the Nazi regime and its collaborators. 27 January was chosen to commemorate the date when the Auschwitz concentration camp was liberated by the Red Army in 1945. Holocaust revisionism as a national policy makes the crime contemporary.The International Holocaust Remembrance Day, or the International Day in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust, is an international memorial day on 27 January that commemorates the victims of the Holocaust, which resulted in the murder of one third of the Jewish people, along with countless members of other minorities between 19 by Nazi Germany, an attempt to implement their " final solution" to the Jewish question. The shame is therefore current, as current as it was when this document was written 80 years ago. The Lithuanian government considers his actions heroic. Eighty years later, I remember one Lithuanian’s role in the Holocaust. So much is left unsaid in this document, and I tremble at what message of horror lies in between the lines, which was all borne out within months. On this first day of the week leading up to the International Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27, I am astounded by the perfunctory callousness of how the property of Jews was administrated, in triplicate. The movable property that is left shall revert to the local administration.ħ) Orchards and gardens left unattended may be taken over by the local administration who may govern them themselves or transfer them to other individuals for an agreed-upon fee. The real estate is considered property unattended and shall be treated in accordance to points 1-5. The details of the property that has been checked shall be given to the chief or mayor, who will then decide on the next course of action.Ħ) Jews who are transferred to other places to live permanently may take their movable property at their own discretion. The local resident chosen by the chief or mayor to monitor the property shall check upon it at least once a week. The use of the funds shall be addressed separately.ĥ) Regarding points 3 and 4, the secured property must be checked and properly monitored so that it won’t become ruined. The funds received from the auction shall be held by the local administration. The auction can be promoted by an Auction Committee of three persons who have been approved by the local chiefs or city mayors. The payment for security and monitoring of the property may come from the local government’s monitoring property account.Ĥ) Regarding the immovable property, which can spoil if left alone over time, can be sold locally at an auction.

The creation and registration of the list will be the responsibility of the local chiefs or secondary city mayors who can create a commission of three people: 1) its own representative 2) a village elder or real estate manager 3) a police representative.ģ) Regarding the security of immovable property, the local chief or city mayor may designate and pay a local resident to monitor the property.

Therefore, they would not need their property in the future. It was never intended for Jews to return.
He was involved in many of the administrative details leading up to their murder and determining how their plundered property should be distributed even before they were murdered. I would like to remember what my grandfather, Jonas Noreika, did eighty years ago during the Shoah in Lithuania throughout this week that is leading up to International Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27, 2021, by focusing on only seven of the documents he signed in 1941.ĭuring his tenure as District Chief of the Siauliai Region from August 1941 to March 1943, Jonas Noreika signed at least 68 known documents that profoundly impacted Jews during the Holocaust.
