New York, NY – U.S. Drafts Holocaust Denial Resolution

New York, NY – The United States has drafted a U.N. resolution condemning the denial of the Holocaust, a month after Iran provoked widespread anger by holding a conference casting doubt on the Nazi genocide of Jews during World War II.

The proposed resolution urges all member states to "reject any denial of the Holocaust," saying that "ignoring the historical fact of these terrible events increases the risk they will be repeated."
The draft resolution "condemns without any reservation any denial of the Holocaust," but doesn't single out any specific country for criticism.
