The history of the Jewish people and the Holocaust will be a mandatory subject from 2023 in all high and vocational schools in Romania after parliament's Senate passed a law.

Deputy Prime Minister Dan Barna, speaking at an event dedicated to the end of German Ambassador in Bucharest Cord Meier-Klodt's tenure, said that "Romania loses a very important ambassador, but gains a real friend for life."

Romanian prosecutors on Monday said police had arrested a man suspected of sending anti-Semitic death threats by email to the well-known Romanian Jewish actress and director of the Bucharest State Theatre, Maia Morgenstern.
