No Russian officials at ceremony marking liberation of Buchenwald Concentration Camp | DW News
Germany is marking the anniversary of the liberation of Buchenwald concentration camp from the Nazis. Holocaust survivors and Jewish leaders gathered to remember the opening up of the camp 77 years ago.
German officials have told Russian and Belarusian diplomatic representatives last month that they are not welcome at the commemoration for the 77th anniversary of the liberation of the Buchenwald and Mittelbau-Dora Nazi concentration camps.
One reason for the move was the death of the 96-year-old Buchenwald camp survivor Boris Romanchenko.
Romanchenko, who had previously served as vice-president for the international committee of survivors for the two camps, was killed by Russian bombardments in the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv in mid-March.
The Nazi camps were liberated by US troops on April 11, 1945, shortly before the end of the Second World War.
