For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
May 31, 2003

Remarks by the President to the Press Pool After Tour of Auschwitz
Auschwitz, Poland

THE PRESIDENT: Laura and I have just toured Auschwitz I, and what they call Auschwitz II, a place where millions were murdered. The sites are a sobering reminder that -- of the power of evil and the need for people to resist evil. This site is a sobering reminder that when we find anti-Semitism, whether it be in Europe or anywhere else, mankind must come together to fight such dark impulses.

And this site is also a strong reminder that the civilized world must never forget what took place on this site.

May God bless the victims and the families of the victims, and may we always remember. Thank you.

END
