"When I enter the Shoah Memorial I am no longer the old woman I am now, I am the one who entered here to be deported," on January 30, 1944. This was said by Senator for Life Liliana Segre arriving at Binario 21 in Milan where a visit is about to begin at the request of the Senator herself with the President of the Senate Ignazio La Russa and the members of the Extraordinary Commission for the Fight against the Phenomena of Intolerance, Racism, Anti-Semitism and Incitement to Hate and Violence, which Liliana Segre chairs.
"I've never forgotten," she told reporters upon her arrival, responding to those who asked her about the meaning of this day.

Di Segni: Holocaust Remembrance Day only remembers the genocide of the Shoah
"Holocaust Remembrance Day is dedicated solely to the victims of the Holocaust. To know what happened and how the genocide of the Shoah was carried out. And it is on this and only on this that the attention of all of us must be focused that day. The focus is therefore also on the responsible use of words, first and foremost genocide." This was told to ANSA by Noemi Di Segni, the president of the Union of Italian Jewish Communities
