German Chancellor Olaf Sholtsor honored the memory of the family members of the Gench, who died on May 29, 1993 as a result of neo -Nazis’ actions in the city of Zolingen.
“30 years ago in Zolingen there was a” black date “. The murder of the neo -Nazis of the five ethnic Turks reminds us that we must protect everyone who lives on these lands, punish criminals, provide support to the victims,” Sholts wrote in Twitter.
The Chancellor emphasized that the ethnic and religious diversity of society is the key to the achievements of Germany.
Scholz put a photograph of the burned house with the names of the dead: Gyursyun Indgea, Hatige Gench, Guluistan Oztyurk, Khulul Gench and Sayim Gench.
The President of Germany Frank-Walter Steinmeier also attracted attention to the tragedy in Zolingen.
The president also posted a picture of a burned out home on his village on Instagram. “30 years ago, the four right -wing radicals set fire to the house of the Turkish family in Zolingen. Gyursyun Indzhe, Gulushtan Ozyturk, Hatidge, Sayim and Khulul Gench died in the fire. This attack became the climax of the ultra -right wave of the early 1990s,” wrote Steinmeyer.
