Holocaust denial graffiti in Nazi massacre memorial village condemned by French politicians
PARIS — French politicians of all political views roundly condemned graffiti denying the Holocaust that was scrawled on a wall in the village that was the site of the France's biggest massacre of civilians by the Nazis during World War II on Saturday.
The rare display of unity, from French President Emmanuel Macron to the far-left and the far-right, underscored the symbolism of Oradour-sur-Glane as a perpetual reminder of the horrors of Nazi occupation of France. The village has remained untouched since the massacre.
Macron, who visited the village after his 2017 election victory, vowed that "all will be done" to catch those who defaced the wall at the entrance of the Center for Remembrance.
