On November 7, 2023, the Museum of Victims of Deportations and Political Repressions, NMHM, with the support of the Embassy of the Republic of Moldova in the USA participated in the "Victims of Communism International & Food Fair", organized by the Victims of Communism Museum in Washington DC, in the context of The Memorial Day of the Victims of Communism.

The event brought together the efforts of more than 20 diplomatic missions accredited to Washington DC from states with a history marked by the atrocities of communist regimes.

In the compartment represented by the Embassy of the Republic of Moldova, panels from the photo-documentary exhibition "Childhood in the Gulag" and the book collection "Archives of Memory" were exposed, revealing to the large public about the life of children from the Moldavian SSR condemned by the Soviet state to deportation, starvation, Russification, indoctrination, forced isolation from their own families, during the years 1940-1941 and 1944-1953.

The Embassy expressed special thanks to the National Museum of History of Moldova, especially to the curator of the exhibition dr. associate professor Ludmila D. Cojocaru for contributing to the events honoring the memory of the more than 100 million victims produced by the communist regimes in the past, as well as supporting people from all over the world who are today fighting for freedom.
