3. SOUNDBITE (English) António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations:
“At its essence, Holocaust remembrance is a call to be on constant alert. Never to be silent in the face of hate. Never tolerant of intolerance. Never indifferent to the suffering of others.”
Wide shot, General Assembly Hall
3. SOUNDBITE (English) António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations:
“Survey after survey arrives at the same conclusion: antisemitism is at record-highs. And what is true for antisemitism is true for other forms of hate. Racism. Anti-Muslim bigotry. Xenophobia. Homophobia. Misogyny. Neo-Nazi, white supremacist movements are becoming more dangerous by the day. In fact, they now represent the number one internal security threat in several countries – and the fastest growing.”

5. SOUNDBITE (English) António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations:
“Today, I am issuing an urgent appeal to everyone with influence across the information ecosystem – regulators, policymakers, technology companies, the media, civil society, and governments. Stop the hate. Set up guardrails. And enforce them.”
6.Wide shot, General Assembly Hall
7. SOUNDBITE (English) António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations:
“We all have a role to play. We can never let hate have the last word. We cannot allow old hatreds to find new outlets and impunity on digital platforms. Together, we must confront falsehoods with facts, ignorance with education, indifference with engagement. Because “never again” means telling the story again and again.”
8.Wide shot, General Assembly Hall
9. SOUNDBITE (French) António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations:
“Today and every day, let us recommit to stand against evil in all its forms and work for a world of peace, human rights, and dignity for all.”
10. Various shots, General Assembly Hall
11. SOUNDBITE (English) Gilad Erdan, Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Israel:
“Fighting antisemitism, sadly, the UN ignores its purpose. Educational programs are very, very important. Learning about history is crucial. But at a time when antisemitism is on the rise, Holocaust denial is spreading, I'm sorry, words are not enough. Verbal commitments are not enough.”
12. Wide shot, General Assembly Hall
13. SOUNDBITE (English) Gilad Erdan, Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Israel:
“UN must remember its mission and history. It must take a stand against antisemitism rather than permitting it to fester and mutate into violence. This strength is our collective duty and if you refuse to do so, for my sake, do so for the sake of the six million.”

STORYLINE:
UN Secretary-General António Guterres said, “at its essence, Holocaust remembrance is a call to be on constant alert. Never to be silent in the face of hate. Never tolerant of intolerance. Never indifferent to the suffering of others.”
Making his remarks at the United Nations memorial ceremony marking the International Day of Commemoration in memory of the victims of the holocaust today (27 Jan), Guterres expressed his deep gratitude to the survivors at the ceremony and those who join online, adding that their courage, resilience, and endurance continue to inspire the world.
The UN chief said that the painful truth is: antisemitism is everywhere and in fact, it is increasing in intensity.
Over the last year, Orthodox Jews were assaulted on busy streets in Midtown Manhattan, Jewish schoolkids bullied in Melbourne, hateful banners hung on a freeway bridge in Los Angeles, and Swastikas spraypainted on the Holocaust memorial in Berlin.
Guterres said “Survey after survey arrives at the same conclusion: antisemitism is at record-highs. And what is true for antisemitism is true for other forms of hate. Racism. Anti-Muslim bigotry. Xenophobia. Homophobia. Misogyny. Neo-Nazi, white supremacist movements are becoming more dangerous by the day. In fact, they now represent the number one internal security threat in several countries – and the fastest growing.”
From Christchurch to Buffalo, from El Paso to Oslo, with targets from mosques to synagogues, refugee centers to grocery stores, the world is not just facing violent extremism; it is increasingly facing terrorism, the UN chief said.
And a leading accelerant of this growth is the online world.
Guterres issued an urgent appeal to “everyone with influence across the information ecosystem – regulators, policymakers, technology companies, the media, civil society, and governments. Stop the hate. Set up guardrails. And enforce them.”
Many parts of the Internet are becoming toxic waste dumps for hate and vicious lies, the Secretary-General said, explaining that is why he has called for regulation that clarifies responsibility and improves transparency.
Guterres also mentioned the United Nations Strategy and Plan of Action on Hate Speech, which is to provide a framework for the UN’s support to Member States to counter hate speech and hate crime while respecting freedom of expression and opinion.
As part of Our Common Agenda, Guterres also has proposed a Global Digital Compact for an open, free, inclusive, and secure digital future for all, firmly anchored in human rights.
The Secretary-General said that we all have a role to play. We can never let hate have the last word. We cannot allow old hatreds to find new outlets and impunity on digital platforms.”

He added, “This strength is our collective duty and if you refuse to do so, for my sake, do so for the sake of the six million.”
United Nations General Assembly Resolution 60/7 that established the Holocaust and the United Nations Outreach Programme, also designated 27 January as an annual International Day of Commemoration in memory of the victims of the Holocaust – observed with ceremonies and activities at United Nations Headquarters in New York and at United Nations offices around the world.
