This event, which is held annually in this country, aims to educate young people and teach them more about what the Roma have experienced a few years ago.

Many other students from different parts of the world are participating among dozens of Kosovars.

With a full hall, and in the midst of tears, they have heard the confession of an elderly man who has survived France's camp.

Raymond Gureme, told how full 11 times he survived the deaths of various camps that were organized by the Nazis.

Never give up, don't kneel on anybody, don't hesitate to tell you what you are, and never do what you're not, it was Gurema's message to students.

Meanwhile, the students traveled with him to see the Auschwitz museum closely.

They were shocked at what they saw.

Denis Galushi, who is a journalist on Radio Kosova, told Express that it is his first time to visit this museum.

“Holokaust made the Roma stronger was my first article I wrote before visiting this country. Today, he is repeating that Roma are stronger because their culture, language, anthem and history are alive even though he tried to disappear from others before, Galushi told Express.

Meanwhile, Gazmend Salijevic was never able to stop tears at any moment when he saw pictures of the dead children.

The pain they experienced today I felt. Children's voices have given me power to fight for the future, Sullivan told Express.

One of the organisers of this trip from Kosovo, Avni Mustafa, feels happy that he has managed to gather for several years now hundreds of students to send to Auschwitz.

Our organisation, Advacing together, has had purpose and obligation to collect some Roma and non- Roma youths from Kosovo to see for closer what the Roma have faced during the Holocaust, to learn from it and as a society as a whole contribute for changes, Mustafa added to Express.

Auschwitz History:

The Auschwitz-Brikenau camp was the most important Nazi death camp. On January 27, 1945, the Red Army soldiers entered the largest death camp. The Soviets discovered about seven thousand people still alive in the camp. From 1940 to 1945, at least 1.1 million died in Auschwitz, 960,000 of them men, women, and children of Jews who moved from Nazi - occupied countries in Europe. At first, Auschwitz was a concentration camp for 10,000 people, and then it was turned into an extermination plant, and it stretched up to three miles [3 km], equipped with gas rooms linked to crematoriums.
