"To receive the plaque in honor of the survivors of the Holocaust today in this embassy is a privilege and at the same time a very important challenge, to continue working together with all of you, so that atrocious crimes such as these never again repeat themselves in the history of humanity, so that there is never again an attempt at genocide, and finally, so that there will be peace in the Middle East."
