“We are contending. He’s unstoppable, like someone else I know,' VP Pence tells Israeli PM Netanyahu.
Foreign leaders and dignitaries, including Russian President Vladimir Putin and Britain’s Prince Charles, journeyed to Israel to take part in the conference, which is dedicated to the six million Jews, including 1.5 million children, who died in the Holocaust during World War II. The gathering, at Yad Vashem, the World Holocaust Remembrance Center, focused on the unity among World War II allies as they battled Germany, with speeches by Putin, Prince Charles, and French President Emmanuel Macron.
“The magnitude of the genocide that was visited on the Jewish population defies comprehension,” Prince Charles said. “We must therefore commit ourselves to ensuring that their stories live on.” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is also attending the conference, along with member of Congress, including Eliot Engel, D-N.Y., the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee."The industrial mass murder of 6 million Jews ... was committed by my countrymen" German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier said."I stand here laden with the heavy historical burden of guilt."
Steinmeier also had a warning for the the present:"The spirits of evil are emerging in a new guise," he said. When Prince Charles entered the hall, he did not shake hands with Pence despite doing so with dignitaries to the sides of him, fueling speculation on social media that the Prince of Wales had snubbed the vice president. But Pence's press secretary, Katie Waldman, pointed out that the leaders chatted before they entered the hall and tweeted out a video of the two talking.
