European Union makes another stop in healing old wounds

Yesterday in Brussels the European Union moved a step further in granting membership to Ukraine.

By coincidence or fate today is the 82nd anniversary of the day German troops murdered 15,000 Jews near Kharkiv in Ukraine. December 15, 1941 is etched in the collective memory of th people of Ukraine.

And on this day in 1961 Adolf Eichmann was sentenced to death after being found guilty by an Israeli court of crimes against humanity against the Jewish people.

History.
