US President Donald Trump declares Monday to be the National Day of Remembrance of the 80th Anniversary of the Liberation of Auschwitz, in a statement issued less than two hours before midnight Tuesday.

“Today, we renew our promise that antisemitism has no place in a civilized society, no place in our foreign policy, and no place in the United States of America,” Trump says in a statement.
