Russian President Vladimir Putin met with Russia's top rabbis on Thursday (January 26) on the eve of International Holocaust Remembrance Day, as it emerged that Russian officials had been excluded from the main commemorative events at Auschwitz in Poland.

The Russian leader said he was "pursuing a policy meaning nothing like this in the history of mankind will ever happen again".

Russian representatives were not invited to the 78th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz prisoners by the Soviet Red Army at the Auschwitz Museum in Poland due to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova took to social media to condemn the decision.

Some six million people, mainly Jews, were killed in the Holocaust during WWII.
