Havel: Europe has particular responsibility for Nazism and communism

Europe has a particular responsibility for the two totalitarian regimes that originated on the Old Continent, Nazism and communism, as well as for their consequences, former Czech president Václav Havel said Monday at a conference on communism held at the Czech Senate. Mr Havel also said that the European Union should provide greater support to those who strive for freedom in countries such as Cuba, Burma and Belarus.
