The Austrian constitutional committee voted unanimously in favour of a motion for a resolution by the coalition parties aimed at introducing a National Day of Remembrance for Roma and Sinti. Specifically, it is proposed that the Roma and who were persecuted and murdered under the Nazi regime be commemorated on August 2nd. On this day, the Holocaust victims of this ethnic minority are already being commemorated at European level.
