Romania Agrees to Pay New Reparations to Holocaust Survivors in Deal With Israel
The Romanian government will now recognize Israeli documents which attest to a survivor having been in Romania during the Holocaust May 2, 2022 Romania will pay reparations worth up to 2,500 shekels ($745) a month to Romanian Holocaust survivors for the rest of their lives, following an agreement between the Israeli and Romanian governments. The agreement, which is expected to be signed in the next few days, will have Romania recognize Israeli documents provided by the Holocaust Survivors' Rights Authority in the Social Equality Ministry, which attest to a survivor having been in Romania during the war. The negotiations over the agreement lasted for months, the ministry said. Until now, the Romanian government did not recognize such documents from Israel, so survivors needed to present official Romanian documents or obtain them from the Romanian archives. The Holocaust Survivors' Rights Authority estimates that about 15,000 Romanian survivors will be eligible to receive the allowance, which is expected to range between 1,500 shekels ($450) to 2,500 shekels depending on the amount of time the survivor spent in Romania between 1940 and 1945. These survivors, who are or were Romanian citizens, will now be eligible for payments from the Romanian government in addition to payments they receive from Israel and other countries, such as Germany. The agreement will also apply to over 1,200 survivors from Bucharest who immigrated to Israel after October 1, 1953, and who until now were only eligible for a yearly stipend. This has now been increased from 4,000 shekels a year to 6,500 shekels. The agreement does not include survivors of the Bucharest Ghetto, because it was recognized last November as an “open ghetto” by the Germany, making these survivors entitled to retroactive benefits and payments from the German government. The German designation regarding Bucharest made survivors from there eligible for a 600 Euro monthly stipend. Romanian survivors are now also entitled to payments from the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany, known better as the Claims Conference, as well as additional payments for survivors from the Israeli government. These monthly payments can reach a total of 11,729 shekels, depending on the condition and financial situation of the survivors. This may be retroactive to July 1, 1991 – and is in addition to a one-time compensation payment between 150,000 shekels to 200,000 shekels, which the widows and heirs of these survivors may also be entitled to. In January, the Claims Conference announced that 6,500 survivors from the siege of Leningrad who are from French or Romanian descent will now receive a 375 Euro monthly stipend. About 2,00 of these survivors live in Israel. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...ael-1.10775738 |

Romania to pay compensation to Holocaust survivors in Israel
August 01, 2022 Romania's fascist regime during WWII was complicit in Nazi genocide of Jews Israel on Monday announced an agreement with Romania whereby Holocaust survivors will be eligible for a compensatory pension from Bucharest's social security service. During WWII, Romania was ruled by Marshal Ion Antonescu, a fascist who collaborated with and participated in Nazi Germany's genocide of European Jewry. According to a report released by the Romanian government in 2004, between 280,000 and 380,000 Jews were murdered in the Holocaust in Romania, excluding all those murdered in Romanian territories temporarily under Hungarian control. The agreement, unveiled by Israel's Minister for Social Equality Meirav Cohen and Prime Minister Yair Lapid, sets up a system for Israelis who fled from Romania to file compensation claims. "We do not have many years left to serve the survivors of the Holocaust, and therefore we act out of a sense of mission and urgency to do as much as we can in order to improve their economic situation, upgrade the services provided to them and allow them to age with dignity," Cohen said. "Recently, we made agreements with several countries to the tune of hundreds of millions of shekels that will be transferred to survivors' bank accounts. In addition, we allocated NIS 300 million ($89.2 million) in the state budget, to increase allowances for the poorest Holocaust survivors," she added. Lapid said that "as the son of a Holocaust survivor, I am thrilled by the signing of this important agreement. The State of Israel must do everything so that Holocaust survivors can live here in the country with the dignity they deserve." "Today we are correcting decades of injustice," Lapid added. "This is our basic duty as a society - to see that the survivors live out the rest of their lives in the best way possible. I want to thank my friend Minister for Social Equality Merav Cohen and all the partners." https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/israe...vors-in-israel |
