Melalui akun Instagramnya, Syahrini menuliskan klarifikasinya dalam bahasa Inggris. Syahrini menegaskan dirinya tak bermaksud 'menyerang' siapapun. Pesan ini sendiri dibuat Syarini di Budapest, Hungaria. 

"I Fully Understand The Criticism Caused By My Instagram Posts About The Holocaust monument In Germany !

But I want to make it clear to everybody that I truly never meant to disrespect or offend anybody or anybody’s religion ...
I went to the Memorial as a tourist and, like so many other tourists there, was amazed at the design of it and wanted to take pictures and video.

I now understand that this was not appropriate.

Also, in the video I posted on Instagram that has caused so much controversy, I did not Mean to Say “BAGUS” (Indonesian for “nice!”) to refer to the Holocaust, But to the impressive design of the Memorial !

Unfortunately, others have not been accurate in reciting what I actually said and meant, Of course, the Holocaust was a horrible and terrifying tragedy– and the Memorial serves as a reminder to us all of how important it is to oppose aggressively all forms of hatred.

Racism and bigotry and how we must do our best to protect everybody’s human rights and religious freedoms. If I had focused on that as I should have during my visit, I would have behaved in a different way. I have learned from this experience and I hope others have learned from my experience too!

Hate, anger and jealousy are very dangerous components in society, history shows this and unfortunately currently still is showing in other parts of the world or even on social media as you have been seeing in some reactions on my post.

We should be careful with this subject as it can lead to horrible situations!," tutupnya.
